Long-term lung function trajectories in Swedish COVID-19 ICU survivors: a two-year follow-up study.
Article in European clinical respiratory journal, 2026. 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
Introduction: Longitudinal studies of lung function following COVID-19 remain limited. This study examined lung function in COVID-19 patients for two years after discharge from an intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: Patients treated for COVID-19 in Uppsala ICU (mean 11.1 days) were assessed at four months, one year, and two years post-discharge. Lung function tests included spirometry, diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (D Result: A total of 104 patients (32% female, with a mean age of 60 years) participated in four months follow-up, 40 in one year follow-up, and 21 in two years follow-up after discharge. Impaired D Conclusion: Despite recovery between one and two years, one-third of patients exhibited impaired D
