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

Background: Multisystemic inflammatory syndrome (MIS) in the post-coronavirus disease (COVID) scenario is recognized in the pediatric population worldwide. However, no case report features jaw bone necrosis caused by self-mutilating injury noted during COVID treatment. Case description: This report is of a 5-year-old child affected by COVID. During the course of treatment, she presented with MIS and was treated with steroids and oxygen therapy. She was observed to have cardiac and gastrointestinal disorders. However, some psychiatric impairment caused her to pull out her lower anterior teeth, thus acting as an injury to the tissue and causing osteomyelitis. This necrotic bone tissue was excised surgically, and due to the loss of teeth, prosthetic rehabilitation was performed for the patient. Conclusion: This unique presentation of post-COVID manifestations of self-mutilating injury is alarming for the pediatric population. How to cite this article: Gala UP, Kalaskar RR.
