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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory infectious disease that caused a worldwide pandemic in December 2019. It affected millions of people across the world and forced nations to lockdown their borders and implement curfews to control the spread of the disease. Unusual manifestations of the disease should be reported and be kept in mind among physicians. We report a case of a 33-year-old man who was fully vaccinated with two doses of Pfizer vaccine and presented with fever, epigastric pain, and diarrhea without any respiratory symptoms. The patient had a longer than usual incubation period of 16 days without reporting any signs of respiratory infection for the period of his infection. His laboratory investigations and chest X-ray were all normal. The patient did not require any treatment and his COVID-19 infection lasted for 10 days. Clinicians should understand that post-vaccination COVID-19 cases might present with a longer incubation period than usual and might present with gastrointestinal symptoms as the sole complaint.
