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

A 2-year-old boy tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 and, after 30 days of mild-moderate respiratory symptoms, suddenly deteriorated and required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Lung biopsy was performed with findings consistent with organizing pneumonia. He received intensive therapy with high-dose methylprednisolone, intravenous immune globulin, rituximab, and plasmapheresis without improvement. He died after 85 days hospitalization. This case highlights unique presentations of COVID-19 and reaffirms the concept that, while rare in Hawai'i, pediatric COVID-19 is an ongoing problem and that severe, even fatal, disease can occur.
