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 report a case of a kidney transplant recipient who presented with generalised muscle pain, weakness and brown urine discoloration in the setting of acute severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Investigations demonstrated rhabdomyolysis with elevated creatine kinase levels and severe acute kidney injury (AKI). A muscle biopsy was consistent with an immune-mediated necrotising myositis. The patient received intravenous fluids, remdesivir and haemodialysis, with subsequent resolution of muscle injury and recovery of kidney function. This case indicates the potential for severe myositis to develop in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection with the potential for rhabdomyolysis and AKI to occur.
