A Complex Case of Laryngospasm Secondary to COVID-19 Infection in a 40-Year-Old Male.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
COVID-19 is a novel viral infection with a wide variety of clinical manifestations ranging from asymptomatic cases to severe respiratory illness. Laryngospasm is a spontaneous sustained closure of the laryngeal muscles leading to acute airway obstruction. We report a case of a 40-year-old male with a history of nephrolithiasis who underwent laparoscopic pyeloplasty and developed laryngospasm as a consequence of contracting COVID-19. The case was further complicated by the development of pneumothorax and pleural effusion during the postoperative period. The patient was managed with supplemental oxygen, antibiotics, antiviral therapy, and close monitoring. He recovered without any additional complications. This case highlights the potential initial clinical manifestation and the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 infection in surgical patients.
