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

A 61-year-old male presented to the emergency department with left arm and jaw pain for three hours which started 90 minutes after receiving the first dose of Moderna vaccine for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). He had a prior history of ischemic heart disease. Initial investigations confirmed the diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome. The patient was managed for non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction and percutaneous coronary intervention to the right posterior descending artery was done, and he was discharged after two days of hospital stay. As the patient was doing well for many years and was compliant with medications, this event was likely triggered by the coronavirus vaccine. Healthcare providers should be aware of the side effects of the vaccine and further investigations should be carried out in high-risk patients before vaccination. However, worldwide coronavirus vaccination programs play a significant role to halt this pandemic and these rare adverse side effects of the vaccine should never discourage people from the vaccination but monitoring of evolving data by the concerned authorities is very important so that these events can be prevented in future.
