1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

We describe a case of adult croup in an 18-year-old female caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Her complaints started as lower respiratory tract symptoms that evolved into stridor, barking cough, and dyspnea. The patient was diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing from a nasopharyngeal swab. The patient received multiple doses of nebulized racemic epinephrine with minimal improvement, and later the patient required mechanical ventilation. Intravenous remdesivir was administered for five days. Multiple doses of dexamethasone were required throughout the course of the illness. Croup in adults secondary to COVID-19 infections appears to be severe and might be poorly responsive to standard treatment protocols.
