Ocular Flutter-Myoclonus-Ataxia Syndrome After mRNA BNT162b2 COVID-19 Vaccine: A Case Report.

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
Ocular flutter (OF) is a rare oculomotor syndrome. The most common etiologies are paraneoplastic, postinfectious and toxic-metabolic. However post-vaccinal etiology was rarely reported in OF. Here, we reported a post-vaccinal clinical syndrome characterized by OF-myoclonus and ataxia associated with oligoclonal bands (OCBs). A 60-year-old male who presented with dizziness, unsteady gait, involuntary movements, involuntary conjugate eye oscillations and extremity jerks that started 3 days after the second dose of mRNA BNT162b2 Covid-19 vaccine. Routine biochemical and serological analysis were within normal limits. No pathological finding was detected in brain MRI. Paraneoplastic and autoimmune encephalitis tests were unremarkable in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Oligoclonal bands were positive in CSF. This is the first description of the relationship between vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 and the clinical syndrome of OF, Myoclonus and Ataxia (OFMAS). Humoral immune mechanisms seem to play an important role in OFMAS. Presence of OCBs in CSF may also be associated with this condition.
