SARS-CoV-2 vaccination associated venous sinus thrombosis in three patients.
Article in Journal of applied biomedicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThere is increasing evidence that vaccinations against the severe acquired respiratory syndrome coronavirus type-2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus can be followed by venous sinus thrombosis (VST). Here we report on three patients who developed VST shortly after SARS-CoV-2 vaccinations. CASE SERIES: An 80-year-old male, a 58-year-old male, and a 34-year-old female developed VST 14 to 24 days after the first dose of an mRNA-based SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. All three patients profited from analgesics, heparinisation, and oral anticoagulation, but made only an incomplete recovery at the time of discharge. Arguments for a causal relationship are: VST was time-linked to vaccination in the three patients; VST was previously reported after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination; SARS-CoV-2 infections can be complicated by VST; and SARS-CoV-2 can be associated with hypercoagulability. The fact that no hypercoagulability occurred in a pilot study after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and that there has been no evidence of an increased prevalence/incidence of VST after vaccination since the introduction of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination speak against a causal relationship.
conclusionsSARS-CoV-2 vaccinations can occasionally be followed by a VST. There are more arguments for than against a causal relationship.
