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

Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare but severe complication of COVID-19 vaccination. We report two cases of GBS following vaccination with the adenovirus vector vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (Vaxzevria, AstraZeneca) and review the relevant literature. Relevant studies published between December 2020 and May 2022 including 881 patients with GBS were reviewed. GBS incidence and the need for mechanical ventilation were reported at a higher level among patients receiving Vaxzevria (n = 400). However, incidence cannot be accurately estimated from case reports. Thus, the true GBS rates following COVID-19 vaccination should be determined by population-based data.
