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
Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is a rare form of acquired autoimmune hemolytic anemia driven mainly by antibodies that activate the classical complement pathway. Several patients with CAD experience its development or exacerbation of hemolysis after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection or after receiving the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine. Therefore, these patients cannot receive an additional SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination and have a higher risk of severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. Sutimlimab is a monoclonal antibody that inhibits the classical complement pathway of the C1s protein and shows rapid and sustained inhibition of hemolysis in patients with CAD. However, whether sutimlimab could also inhibit hemolysis caused by SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination is uncertain. Here, we present the case of a 70-year-old man with CAD who repeatedly experienced a hemolytic crisis after receiving SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines. The patient eventually underwent SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination safely, without hemolytic attack, under classical pathway inhibition therapy with sutimlimab. This report suggests that appropriate sutimlimab administration can suppress SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination-induced CAD exacerbation, and that it could be a preventive strategy to minimize hemolytic attacks in susceptible populations.
