Effect of gentle exercises on injection site reaction after Covid-19 vaccination. A case report.
Article in Journal of bodywork and movement therapies, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionA series of atypical acute respiratory diseases were caused in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 by a novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Over six million confirmed COVID-19 cases had been reported worldwide, and total deaths in the USA from March 1 to May 30, 2020, were approximately 7,81,000. Worldwide, scientists are developing many potential COVID-19 vaccines. Few of the companies got success in the development of a vaccine for COVID-19, but most of the recipients reported injection site reactions like pain, redness, or erythema after vaccination. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of gentle upper limb exercises to reduce injection site reactions, and here we present a case with post vaccination site reaction that reported pre-assessment score 7 for visual analog scale for pain and score 2 for redness and erythema with Investigator-reported and rated injection site reactions. Then he performed gentle upper limb exercises after 8 and 24 hours of vaccination.
resultThe study reported a beneficial effect of these exercises to reduce pain and redness or erythema after Covid-19 vaccination. DISCUSSION: The potential benefit of gentle exercises may be due to their blood flow boost-up and anti-inflammatory effects. However, high-quality controlled trials are warranted further to evaluate the potential benefit of upper limb gentle exercises for the reduction of injection site reactions after the Covid-19 vaccination injection.
conclusionThe clinical experience with the subect shows that gentle exercises for upper limb may reduce the inection site reaction after COVID-19 vaccination.
