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

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) declared Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) a pandemic on March 11, 2020. On 16 Material and Methods: This was a descriptive observational study conducted in the COVID-19 vaccination centres of Karnal district and the ADR monitoring centre, KCGMC, Karnal. During the visits to vaccination centres, all beneficiaries of the precautionary third dose of COVID-19 vaccines as well as healthcare workers were sensitized to report in case of any adverse event following vaccination as part of the policy of the vaccination programme run by the government and Pharmacovigilance Programme of India. The data were collected in suspected adverse drug reaction (ADR) reporting form version 1.4, and causality assessment was done as per the WHO-UMC scale. The data were analysed as simple proportions and percentages. Results: The booster dose was administered to 72,853 individuals, while the 1 Conclusion: The booster dose administered for the prevention of COVID-19 has been found to be reasonably safe. The population who received COVID-19 booster doses was significantly less than the populations who received the first and second doses, which suggests a low acceptance rate.
