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

Subacute thyroiditis is an inflammatory thyroid disorder. It is often triggered following viral infections. Amid the current COVID-19 pandemic, several cases of subacute thyroiditis were reported worldwide related to SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccines. We report a rare case of subacute thyroiditis possibly related to immunization with inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine Sinopharm BIBP. A 29-year-old previously healthy Sri Lankan woman presented with anterior neck pain, low-grade fever and fatigue appearing 7 days after immunization with the second dose of inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine Sinopharm BIBP. She apparently reported similar symptoms which subsided spontaneously within a few days, following immunization with first dose of vaccine. On examination, she had tenderness over the anterior neck. She was afebrile, not tachycardic and clinically euthyroid. Her inflammatory markers were elevated. An ultrasound scan of the neck demonstrated two low echogenic micronodules of 6 x 3 mm
