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 present a case of Pure Red Cell Aplasia (PRCA) secondary to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patient. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of SARS-CoV-2-associated PRCA in an HIV-positive individual. The patient received immunosuppressive therapy (IST):initial treatment with corticosteroids was later switched to cyclosporine A (CsA), and he ultimately achieved complete remission. Additionally, we reviewed previously reported cases of SARS-CoV-2-associated PRCA. These findings emphasize that hematological abnormalities should also be recognized as a critical extrapulmonary complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection. In conclusion, SARS-CoV-2 infection can affect bone marrow tissue, leading to a spectrum of hematological abnormalities and subsequent clinical sequelae. For HIV-positive patients presenting with PRCA, antiretroviral drugs and acute or chronic infections should be prioritized in the diagnostic workup.
