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 Autoimmune diseases have been linked to COVID-19 vaccines. An increasing number of cases have reported de novo immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) following mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. This study aims to investigate the incidence of de novo ITP following the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine in comparison to other non-mRNA vaccines and COVID-19. Methods Data were collected from the TriNetX global health research network, which covers over 117 million patients. Four different patient cohorts were included: those who received the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine (between 12/15/2020 - 5/1/2023), the influenza vaccine (between 01/01/2010 - 01/01/2020), tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis/tetanus and diphtheria (Tdap/Td) vaccines (between 01/01/2010 - 01/01/2020), and those who had COVID-19 (between 01/01/2020 - 05/01/2023). A comparative analysis was conducted to examine the occurrence of de novo ITP within three weeks after receiving mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, non-mRNA vaccines, or upon diagnosis of COVID-19. Additionally, a comparative analysis was performed after 1:1 propensity score matching to balance baseline characteristics (age, sex, and race). Results The overall event rate was 0.07 per 10,000 for the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, 0.25 per 10,000 for the influenza vaccine, and 0.28 per 10,000 for the Tdap/Td vaccines. Additionally, the incidence of de novo ITP following COVID-19 was 0.30 per 10,000. Those who received the influenza vaccine and Tdap/Td vaccines had higher rates of de novo ITP compared to the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine group, with a relative risk of 3.48 and 3.88, respectively. The occurrence of de novo ITP following COVID-19 was significantly higher compared to that following the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, with a relative risk of 4.27. Post-propensity score matching analysis produced similar outcomes. Conclusions The findings of this study suggest that the incidence of de novo ITP is significantly lower following mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines compared to non-mRNA vaccines and COVID-19.
