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

Skin often represents a target organ for adverse drug reactions and this also applies to the mRNA vaccines against Sars-CoV-2. Here we present a case of extensive livedoid reaction after 2nd dose of BNT162b-2 vaccine with massive blood skin extravasation and no systemic symptoms apart from anemization. The 30-year-old woman developed progressively enlarging livedoid lesions on limbs and abdomen. Histology showed a near-normal epidermis and a very mild interstitial mixed inflammatory infiltrate with extensive blood extravasation in mid- and deep dermis. Diagnosis was adverse reaction to vaccine with skin capillary hyperpermeability and anaemization with lower than diagnostic features of cutaneous small vessel vasculitis. To date, no cases of a livedoid skin reaction associated to Covid-19 vaccine have been reported, and this case illustrates that massive livedoid reaction can be another kind of skin reaction to mRNA Covid-19 vaccine.
