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

As vaccination against COVID-19 became more widespread, side-effects that were not initially detected during clinical trials became more prominent. The aim of this systematic review is to discuss reports of adverse cardiovascular events associated with COVID-19 vaccination. Databases were searched from inception up to August 2022 to identify case reports and case series reporting on patients with cardiovascular disease after COVID-19 vaccination. This study assessed 150 published cases. Of these, 109 were case reports and 41 were case series. The majority of patients were male (n=302, 86.6%), with a mean age of 27.6 ± 16.7 years. Of the included patients, 268 (76.6%) had myocarditis, 50 (14.6%) had myopericarditis, 8 (2.3%) had pericarditis, and only 4 (1.1%) had stress-induced cardiomyopathy. Moreover, 30 (8.6%) and 11 (3.1%) were diagnosed with arrhythmia and ischaemic heart disease, respectively. Ultimately, cardiovascular complications after COVID-19 vaccination include myocarditis, myopericarditis, ischaemic heart disease and arrhythmia. The young population, especially young male patients, could be more vulnerable to myocarditis.
