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
Shoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA) has been frequently reported adverse event following COVID-19 vaccination. Multiple studies have reported various injuries including subacromial bursitis, rotator cuff tears, nerve injury, and most commonly, adhesive capsulitis. Adhesive capsulitis is defined as an inflammatory disease of the joint capsule characterized by pain and stiffness. Herein, we present a case of a 38-year-old female, known to have uncontrolled diabetes mellites and asthma, presented to upper extremity orthopedic clinic complaining of 6 months history of left shoulder pain and limited range of motion following COVID-19 vaccination administration. Clinical examination and radiological studies were consistent with adhesive capsulitis, the patient was then referred for intensive rehabilitation program that provided adequate response. In conclusion, the main etiology of SIRVA has been attributed to suboptimal injection technique, a standardized definition, implementation of safe vaccines injection protocols, and further education and awareness of SIRVA is needed to healthcare practitioners to allow better understanding and prevention.
