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

Since the end of 2020, several vaccines have become available as part of the global efforts to contain the adverse health outcomes of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Although research has confirmed their safety on large scales, several post-marketing reports have revealed some rare cardiovascular side effects. Towards the end of the first half of 2021, multiple reports indicate possible links between COVID-19 vaccines (both mRNA-based vaccine and vector-based vaccines) and myopericarditis. Nevertheless, cardiac conduction disease in this context has only rarely been reported. In this report, we present two cases of probable vaccination-induced cardiac conduction disturbances along with a thorough literature review. In addition, we discuss probable pathophysiological mechanisms and insights into the suggested areas for future research. To our knowledge, these are the first published cases to result in permanent pacemaker implantation.
