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

Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) occurred worldwide, and it affected millions of people around the world and killed millions of lives without a definitive treatment. During this challenging time, vaccine production has been hugely carried out leading to the invention of many vaccines against COVID-19. As any vaccine can have some side effects, COVID-19 vaccines also need surveillance and reporting side effects worldwide. Currently, more than 10 vaccines are available against SARS-CoV-2 infection globally. There are many neurological complications reported by SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. There are some reported neurological complications, such as ischemic stroke, Guillain-Barré syndrome, transverse myelitis, Bell's palsy, cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, optic neuritis, meningoencephalitis, small fiber neuropathy, and Tolosa-Hunt syndrome. We present a case of an elderly man who presented with fever, fits, hyponatremia, and polyuria following COVID-19 vaccination and was found to have cerebral salt wasting (CSW) with the exclusion of other causes.
