Shoulder Pseudo-Tumor from COVID-19 Vaccine.
Article in Vaccines, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Hypersensitivity reactions to the COVID-19 mRNA vaccines were identified in the initial 2020 trials. Appearance of a soft tissue mass is a rare manifestation of this hypersensitivity reaction. In this patient, bilateral injections resulted in the appearance of shoulder masses. Magnetic resonance imaging showed localized pseudo-tumorous edema in both shoulders, one subcutaneous and the other intramuscular. This is only the second case of a mass-like reaction to the COVID-19 vaccine mimicking a possible soft tissue neoplasm. Improper vaccination administration technique may have contributed to this complication. The case is presented to increase awareness of this potential pseudotumor.
