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
objectivesShoulder injury related to vaccine administration (SIRVA), previously observed with influenza vaccines, has gained clinical significance with widespread COVID-19 vaccination. However, few studies correlate vaccine types and demographic factors with the MRI findings of SIRVA. This study aimed to evaluate MRI findings of SIRVA following COVID-19 vaccination and assess associations with vaccine type and patient characteristics.
methodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted on 35 patients with new-onset shoulder complaints within six weeks of COVID-19 vaccination between May 2021 and May 2022. MRI findings suggestive of SIRVA were reviewed, including subacromial bursitis, rotator cuff tears, and adhesive capsulitis. Demographic data, vaccine type, clinical symptoms, and treatments were collected. Follow-up interviews (1-30 September 2024) assessed symptom persistence and vaccine hesitancy. Descriptive statistics and Chi-square tests were used to explore associations.
resultsOf the 35 patients (mean age 53.6 ± 9.0 years; 54.3% female), subacromial bursitis was the most common MRI finding (89.5%), followed by tendonitis (47.4%) and adhesive capsulitis (36.8%). Tendonitis correlated with older age (
conclusionsSIRVA following COVID-19 vaccination showed different MRI patterns associated with female sex, higher BMI, and vaccine type. Awareness of these patterns may expedite recognition of COVID-19-associated SIRVA in routine practice.
