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

backgroundDespite the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccination, the occurrence of side effects has raised concerns among healthcare providers and the general population.

methodsThe aim of the study was to investigation the administration technique of COVID-19 vaccines and the side effects observed after vaccination. The data for the descriptive and cross-sectional study were collected using the "Patient Information Form", "Vaccine Administration Checklist Form", and "COVID-19 Vaccine Side Effects Monitoring Form". The STROBE checklist was followed to ensure methodological rigour.

resultsBinary logistic regression analysis conducted in the study identified gender and vaccine type as factors influencing the risk of side effects. Women were found to have a 3.887 times lower likelihood of experiencing side effects (p = 0.005). Also, individuals vaccinated with Turkovac and Sinovac were found to have a lower risk of side effects compared to those vaccinated with BioNTech (p = 0.006 and p = 0.003, respectively).

conclusionsThe study findings show that the most commonly observed side effects after COVID-19 vaccination are pain at the injection site and tenderness in the extremity. Additionally, gender and vaccine type were found to be significant factors influencing the risk of side effects.
