Transient visual field loss after COVID-19 vaccination: Experienced by ophthalmologist, case report.
Article in American journal of ophthalmology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeThe first reported case of bilateral transient visual field defect, experienced by an ophthalmologist, which developed shortly after COVID-19 vaccination (CoronaVac, Sinovac Biotech Ltd., Beijing, China) and confirmed by computerized automated perimetry. OBSERVATION: The patient is a 42-year-old Thai ophthalmologist. He developed blurred vision within an hour after the second dose of COVID-19 vaccination. We described his self-observed of sequential symptoms, chronologic events, and management steps. The visual field of left congruous hemianopia with respect to vertical midline was detected with computerized automated perimetry. The possible mechanism could be related to an acute vasospasm of the artery in the postchiasmatic visual pathway, triggered by COVID-19 vaccine, Corona Vac. CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: With increasing use of the COVID-19 vaccine in the near future, it would be prudent for medical staff and ophthalmologists to be considered and aware of this associated condition.
