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
Background: Presently India is the second most populous country in the world with an estimated population of 1.4 billion people and has recently been affected by COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent mutant viral outbreak. To date, India has administered its population with over 1.30 billion cumulative doses of COVID-19 vaccine. The consequences of COVID-19 vaccination on the outbreak in India has not been reported until now. Therefore, we probed to assess the impact of COVID-19 outbreak in India from December 2019 to December 2021. Methods: Indian COVID-19 related data were extracted from "ourworldindata.org" and "cowin.gov.in" databases. The incidence rate of COVID-19 per million people was calculated and other parameters such as new cases, positive rate, reproduction rate, new death and stringency index values were extracted from the database for statistical analysis. Results: Data indicate that the COVID-19 positive rate declined as the number of vaccinations rose over time. The Pearson correlation values between new cases and the cumulative percentage of vaccination or the percentage of fully vaccinated population showed no correlation (P < 0.01). COVID-19 vaccination has significantly decreased the R-value and positive rate of SARS-CoV-2 in India (P < 0.01). Furthermore, containment measures showed no correlation with the incidence rate of SARS-CoV-2 in India which may be in contradictory to the global trends. Conclusion: Vaccination against COVID-19 was efficacious in the control of the SARS-CoV-2 outbreak and the decrease in the positive rate. Further, the containment measures had no effect on the spread of COVID-19 infection in India, thus far.
