Quadrilateral space region inflammation and other incidental findings on shoulder MRI following recent COVID-19 vaccination: Three case reports.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
We present 3 cases reporting the normal appearance of the post COVID-19 vaccination on shoulder MRI exams. All 3 patients were imaged 1 to 5 days post-vaccination for unrelated MSK shoulder symptoms, and none reported any symptoms besides mild shoulder discomfort for a day or 2 following vaccine administration. All 3 patients demonstrated characteristic deltoid edema, quadrilateral space region edema and axillary nodal prominence. Vessel prominence with t2 and t1 increased signal draining to the approximate location of the quadrilateral space and axilla was an associated feature. The normal appearance of the covid-19 vaccine on shoulder MRI has not been previously described, and recognition by the radiologist will prevent erroneous differential diagnosis, unnecessary medical workups, and detract from the clinically relevant pathological imaging findings in patients with shoulder pain.
