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
objectiveThere are controversies regarding the effect of the influenza vaccine on the risk of suffering from COVID-19. The aim of this paper was to compare the risk of suffering from COVID-19 between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients against influenza.
methodsA retrospective case-control study of patients assigned to an urban CAP (coverage: 44,564 inhabitants) was carried out during 2020. Patients with diagnostic confirmation of COVID-19 (ART, PCR or serology) were defined as cases, and those who have not had said infection, selected by simple random sampling, were defined as controls. The case/control ratio was 1:1. The data sources used were the Khalix health data registry databases and the computerized medical record (E-cap). Data were analyzed with a multivariable logistic regression model.
resultsA total of 4,320 patients were included in the study: 2,160 cases (50%) and 2,160 controls. 18% of the cases and 14.3% of the controls were vaccinated against influenza [OR=1.3 (95% CI: 1.2-1.5; p=0.001)]. Multivariate analysis showed that in patients under eighty years of age, there were no differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients [OR=1.02 (95% CI: 0.8-1.3; p=0.8)]; while in those over eighty years of age, there was a lower risk of presenting COVID-19 in vaccinated patients [OR=0.4 (95% CI: 0.3-0.7; p<0.001)].
conclusionsThe adjusted model shows that at ages above than 80 years, flu-vaccinated patients have decreased risk of COVID-19 with statistical significance.
