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

A 33-year-old woman developed paresthesia in her right thumb approximately 30 minutes after receiving the BNT162b2 (Pfizer-BioNTech) severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine. The paresthesia gradually spread to her right-side limbs and trunk, and cervical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a localized lesion in the right dorsal column. After glucocorticoid therapy, her symptoms and MRI findings improved. Although disease developing less than 24 hours after vaccination is considered an unlikely cause of immuno-associated adverse events following vaccination, we discuss the possible mechanisms involved in early-onset central nervous system inflammation after vaccination in view of preexisting immunopathological susceptibility.
