Multi-system inflammatory syndrome in a child with Crohn's disease- a diagnostic dilemma.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 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
Post-covid multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) can cause life-threatening inflammation in children, particularly in those with underlying conditions like Crohn's disease (CD). The overlap of symptoms between CD flares and MIS-C can create diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, necessitating high-level clinical suspicion and aggressive management when both conditions coexist. We present a 14-year-old boy, with a 3-year history of CD, who presented with diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss. Investigations revealed anemia, thrombocytosis, hypoalbuminemia, and elevated inflammatory markers and fecal calprotectin. He was treated with methylprednisolone and methotrexate. On day 25 of admission, he developed altered sensorium, inability to ambulate, and hypoxia. He was found to have left ventricular dysfunction, non-hepatic hyperammonemia and cerebral sinus thrombosis. Work-up revealed a pro-inflammatory state with elevated serum ferritin, interleukin-6, d-dimers and positive anti-Covid IgG, and led to the diagnosis of MIS-C overlapping with CD flare. He was treated with intravenous immunoglobulin and recovered.
