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

After months of confronting COVID-19 pandemic, several countries, including Saudi Arabia, have recently approved newly developed vaccines to prevent COVID-19 infection. With the new technology utilized to develop some vaccines, questions arise about their long-term safety. To provide rapid response to emerging safety issues, robust surveillance programs that provide near real-time analysis of vaccines effects are required. Saudi Arabia has a well-established passive pharmacovigilance system that monitors drugs and vaccines safety. However, recent development in health digitalization in Saudi Arabia may provide a unique opportunity to harvest existing resources to generate high-quality evidence. This commentary provides an overview of the available systems that can be utilized to monitor the COVID-19 vaccines' safety and discusses opportunities for data integration to improve data quality and generate real-world evidence on COVID-19 vaccine safety.
