Acute encephalomyelitis in a 52-year-old male post messenger ribonucleic acid severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccination: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical 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
backgroundAcute disseminated encephalomyelitis is a well-known, but rare, side effect of some vaccines, or symptom following a febrile illness. CASE: A 69-year-old, otherwise healthy Hispanic male presented with acute fever, confusion, and later progressive weakness after receiving the first dose of the mRNA-1273 (Moderna) severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccine. Considering the progressive deterioration of the patient, despite being on multiple immunosuppressive agents, a brain biopsy was obtained, which revealed nonspecific meningoencephalitis.
conclusionIn this case, we highlight the need for a regulatory framework to assist clinicians and patients with coverage of treatment for acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. The use of intravenous immunoglobulin in conjunction with glucocorticoids seems to be an effective treatment option.
