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

Introduction: This report presents an unusual case of sequential, pharmacologically confirmed iatrogenic bilateral Horner syndrome followed by bilateral Adie's tonic pupil, highlighting the spectrum of ocular dysautonomia associated with long coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Case Presentation: A 41-year-old woman with a history of coronavirus disease 2019 reinfection and multiple comorbidities developed pharmacologically confirmed bilateral Horner syndrome after bilateral stellate ganglion blocks. Subsequent worsening of long COVID-19 symptoms alongside systemic dysautonomia emerged, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, orthostatic hypotension, and mast cell activation syndrome. The patient then presented with bilateral, poorly reactive, enlarged pupils, and light-near dissociation. Bilateral Adie's tonic pupil was pharmacologically confirmed. Neuroimaging and laboratory workup were unremarkable. Conclusion: As more cases of long COVID-19 emerge, physicians should be aware that long COVID-19 can manifest with rare neuro-ophthalmic presentations, including bilateral pupillary autonomic dysfunction.
