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

We conducted a population-based cohort study in Stockholm, Sweden, to investigate the effect of COVID-19 vaccination on the risk of developing persistent post-COVID-19 condition (PCC) in individuals surviving the first year after a SARS-CoV-2 infection. In total, 331 042 individuals were included, of which 852 had persistent PCC. The adjusted risk ratio for developing persistent PCC compared with unvaccinated individuals was 0.81 (95% confidence interval [CI], .59-1.10) for 1 dose, 0.42 (95% CI, .35-.52) for 2 doses, and 0.37 (95% CI, .27-.52) for 3 doses. Reduced risks for vaccinated individuals were also observed when restricting the analyses to pre-Omicron and Omicron, as well as all subgroups including sex, age, and previous infection.
