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

With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the development of widespread vaccination strategies, there have been case reports in the adult literature suggesting an increase in thyroiditis after COVID-19 vaccination. We herein describe 2 children who presented with thyroiditis after COVID-19 vaccination. Two children who received Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 messenger RNA vaccines later developed symptoms of thyroid hyperactivity, had positive thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI) levels and received treatment directed toward Graves disease. Our case series is the first to demonstrate Graves disease after COVID-19 vaccination in the pediatric population. Given this possibility, it is important for pediatricians to be watchful for symptoms of thyroiditis post vaccination to prevent treatment delays.
