COVID-19 Vaccine-Induced Pneumonitis, Myositis and Myopericarditis.

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
A 63-year-old male, with no significant past history and not on any regular medications previously, had mild respiratory symptoms post the first dose of the AstraZeneca (Cambridge, England) coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine, which were self-limiting. Following the second dose of the vaccine, he arrived at the emergency department (ED) with worsening shortness of breath. During this admission, he was assumed to have interstitial lung disease due to a possible past history of occupational exposure. He responded to a short-term course of corticosteroids and antibiotics and was discharged home. However, he reported again to the emergency department three weeks later, with persistent dyspnoea along with myalgia. His blood tests and imaging from scans suggested myositis, pneumonitis, and myopericarditis. Since he recently had the COVID-19 AstraZeneca vaccine, it was postulated as the most likely cause of the symptoms. He was managed with intravenous (IV) corticosteroids followed by oral corticosteroids with symptom resolution.
