Acute encephalitis after COVID-19 vaccination: A case report and literature review.
Review in Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Vaccine-related immune responses are one of the causes of encephalitis. Vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2, COVID-19) have been administered worldwide due to the ongoing global pandemic; cases of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination-related encephalitis were scarcely reported. An 82-year-old female was diagnosed with acute encephalitis following her first dose of vaccination with mRNA-1273 against SARS-CoV-2. The patient presented with fever and headache five days after vaccination, followed by behavior change 17 days after vaccination. Electroencephalographic recordings revealed focal slow waves in the right frontoparietal regions. Brain MRI revealed the signal change in the right middle and posterior temporal lobe. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis showed mildly elevated protein. She responded well to steroid pulse therapy and made a full recovery. The severity of the immune response following COVID-19 vaccination may be alleviated if adequate treatment is achieved. Physicians must be alert for encephalitis after vaccination to help ensure a favorable outcome.
