Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM)-like illness in a pediatric patient following COVID-19 vaccination.
Article in BJR case reports, 2023. 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
Since the inception of the COVID-19 pandemic, over 60 cases of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) or ADEM-like clinically isolated syndromes have been linked to COVID-19 infection. However, cases linked to COVID-19 vaccination remain exceptionally rare. To the author's knowledge, eight published cases of ADEM or ADEM-like clinically isolated syndrome have been described after patients received COVID-19 vaccinations, all of which occurred in adults. This report details the first documented case of an ADEM-like illness in a pediatric patient, which developed shortly after receiving the Pfizer (Pfizer-BioNTech, Germany) COVID-19 vaccination. The patient made a near complete clinical recovery over 10 days after receiving a 5-day course of intravenous immunoglobulin therapy.
