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

Introduction: Herein, it is presented a case report of a Colombian adult male patient, without any previous report of thrombocytopenia or hematological disorders, who developed a mild and chronic paucisymptomatic immune thrombocytopenic purpura, a rare complication following SARS-CoV-2 m-RNA. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first documented case in Colombia of immune thrombocytopenic purpura associated with mRNA vaccines (BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273), with a comprehensive 2-year clinical follow-up. Case Description: The patient received the initial and second doses of the mRNA BNT162b2 vaccine in June 2021, the first booster dose in November 2021 (mRNA-1273), and the second booster dose (mRNA BNT162b2) in June 2022. Thrombocytopenia (<100 x109 platelets/L, which is the criterion to define immune thrombocytopenic purpura) was documented after the second vaccination dose and both boosters, and it improved after corticosteroid therapy. However, cycling thrombocytopenia persisted until the clinical follow-up in August 2023, with platelet count ranging from 57 to 191 x109 platelets/L (mean: 103 x109 platelets/L). Conclusion: Given that secondary immune thrombocytopenic purpura can occur following SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination, systematic research to identify risk factors associated with immune thrombocytopenic purpura due to COVID-19 immunization should be conducted.
