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

This case report describes the sudden presentation and successful cessation of psychiatric symptoms following the first administration of the Moderna mRNA vaccine against the SARS-CoV-2 virus during early 2021. The process of discovery of symptoms is described, along with an empirical procedure which identified St. John's wort as the mediating agent. Implications for self-medication of mild depression are discussed. Hypericin, a constituent agent in St. John's wort, interacts with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Sensitization to hypericin following vaccine administration is consistent with the observed symptoms.
