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

Aging and immunocompromising conditions or medications may reduce influenza vaccine effectiveness. The high-dose vaccine has been used to improve vaccine response in patients 65 years and older. Because of systemic immunosuppressive effects, oral corticosteroids may reduce vaccine effectiveness; however, despite over half a century of use, no data are available regarding the effect of joint and bursa corticosteroid injection on influenza vaccine effectiveness. The aim of this retrospective study was to determine whether joint corticosteroid injection was associated with reduced influenza vaccine effectiveness. During the 5 influenza seasons between August 1, 2012, and March 31, 2017, a total of 15,068 major joint corticosteroid injections were given to patients residing in Olmsted County, Minnesota. Vaccinated patients receiving a major joint corticosteroid injection (n=4804) were at increased risk (relative risk, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.20-1.93) for developing influenza compared with vaccinated control patients. Women younger than 65 years were at the highest risk, suggesting that perhaps the high-dose vaccine should be considered for this group to enhance protection when possible.
