Post-Marketing Surveillance of Adverse Events for the Recombinant Zoster Vaccine Among the Population over 50 Years Old in Hangzhou, China.
Article in Vaccines, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectivesThis study aimed to evaluate the safety profile of the recombinant zoster vaccine (RZV) after its marketing in China.
methodsWe present a descriptive analysis and safety signal assessment of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) associated with RZV between September 2020 and December 2023. The descriptive data collected includes demographic characteristics and the classification of characteristics of AEFI cases, while vaccine safety signal assessment was evaluated using the reporting odds ratio (ROR).
resultsIn total, we documented 275 AEFI cases following RZV vaccination, with a reporting rate of 76.22/10,000 doses administered. Notably, only one case was classified as serious, and the reporting rates were significantly higher among females, individuals aged 50-59 years, and those residing in rural areas. Furthermore, the reporting rate for the first dose exceeded that for the second dose. Among the reported AEFI cases, 98.91% were attributed to vaccine product-related reactions, and 97.45% were initially reported by either the vaccine recipient or their guardians. The interval between vaccination and symptom onset was predominant within 3 d after vaccination. The disproportionality analysis identified five positive signals-fever (37.5-38.5 °C), injection site reactions greater than 5 cm, pain, Henoch Schönlein purpura (HSP), and swelling-which suggests a stronger association with the RZV than the expected threshold.
conclusionIn summary, RZV demonstrated a favorable safety profile. However, continued monitoring and research on the long-term safety implications of RZV are needed.
