Non-thrombotic superficial venous phlebitis secondary to Covid-19 vaccine or subsequent Covid-19 infection.

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 43-year-old woman presented with localised areas of prominent, tender superficial veins in her right arm and both legs, and chest pain, following the second dose of AstraZeneca vaccine and possible contemporaneous Covid-19 infection. Electrocardiogram, troponin and d-dimer had all been normal. However, a venous duplex ultrasound scan showed a perivenous inflammation without thrombosis in the areas of her limbs with prominent tender veins, but not elsewhere. We suggest that patients may present with prominent and tender superficial veins secondary to non-thrombotic phlebitis following Covid-19 infection or the AstraZeneca vaccine, which appears to be self-limiting. In addition, this case raises the possibility that Covid-19 infection or the AstraZeneca vaccine may directly affect cells in the vein wall, resulting in phlebitis without any evidence of thrombosis or microthrombosis. This phenomenon appears to be transient and self-limiting.
