De Quervain's Tenosynovitis Virally Exacerbated by SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza Infections: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in infectious diseases, 2025. 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
We present the case of a fully vaccinated 39-year-old male with no pertinent past medical history who initially presented with De Quervain's tenosynovitis which was successfully treated with a corticosteroid injection. His symptoms recurred during a COVID-19 infection, which was treated with a repeat corticosteroid injection. Symptoms recurred during an influenza infection and were subsequently treated with a first dorsal compartment release. The etiology of De Quervain's tenosynovitis remains unclear. It has classically been categorized as a noninflammatory degenerative process, but recent evidence suggests a possible inflammatory connection. Here, we present a case of recurrent De Quervain's tenosynovitis exacerbated by two distinct viral infections. We hypothesize that viral-induced systemic inflammation led to localized recurrence of inflammation within the tendon sheath. Further studies including cytokine analysis and inflammatory markers are needed to advance this hypothesis.
