Mental Health Consequences of COVID-19 Vaccine Side Effects: Findings From a Cross-Sectional Analysis.
Article in Health science reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and Aims: The COVID-19 pandemic has intensified pre-existing mental health issues in Bangladesh, yet no study has specifically examined how factors related to COVID-19 vaccination influence mental health within this context. This study aimed to examine the relationship between mental health symptoms, including depression, anxiety, and stress, and COVID-19 vaccination status and related factors among the adult Bangladeshi population. Methods: A cross-sectional study with a convenience sampling technique was employed to gather the data. The sample size and response rate were 1085 and 93.68%. The mean age of the participants was 34.30 (SD: 12.79), and 55.3% were female. Descriptive and inferential statistics were carried out. Results: The reliability of the instruments, measured by Cronbach's alpha, was: depression (0.78), anxiety (0.82), stress (0.83), and overall DASS (0.92). The average number of COVID-19 vaccine doses taken was 2.33. Each additional dose of the COVID-19 vaccine significantly reduces stress scores by 0.61. Additionally, pre-vaccination concerns about side effects significantly increase anxiety scores by 0.63. Furthermore, experiencing pressure to get vaccinated is associated with a significant increase in depression scores by 0.78. Moreover, experiencing negative outcomes from the vaccine significantly decreases scores across all three mental health metrics: depression by -0.91, anxiety by -0.87, and stress by -1.35. Conclusion: This study reveals the broad psychological consequences of COVID-19 vaccination in Bangladesh, which underscore the importance of effective communication and supportive strategies, alongside targeted psychological interventions at vaccination sites.
