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

The authors present the case of a patient who underwent the removal of a small bluish lesion of the cheek. After discharge, the patient presented with profuse bleeding and hematoma of the cheek. Blood tests revealed severe secondary immune thrombocytopenia (SITP). SITP was probably triggered by the anti-SARS-CoV-2 Pfizer vaccine, which was inoculated to the patient 3 days before the lesion appeared and 12 days before surgery. The authors' aim is to inform colleagues about this possible, rare, adverse effect of the vaccine. In all patients who have recently undergone the COVID-19 vaccine and who present lesions suspected to be due to blood extravasation of the oral mucosa or unjustified gingival bleeding it is advisable to request a blood count before surgery.
