Herpes Zoster Onset 9 Years After First Varicella Zoster Vaccination in an 11-year-old Child - A Case Report.
Article in Current pediatric reviews, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundHerpes zoster (HZ) tends to affect the elderly population and immunocompromised younger patients. However, HZ cases in healthy children have also been reported.
objectiveThis paper is a reminder to physicians, that Herpes Zoster can still be present in children, even in the era after the development of the varicella vaccine and its introduction in the national immunization programs globally.
methodsWe present the case of an immunocompetent 11-year old vaccinated male patient, who developed a HZ infection. The child had received two doses of the VZV vaccination (Varivax®), nine years (first dose) and six years (second dose) prior to the infection.
resultsTogether with the case presentation, we summarize in this report the most recent published data, concerning the HZ prevalence in healthy varicella zoster vaccinated children.
conclusionVaccinated pediatric patients are not completely free of risk concerning HZ. Physicians, especially pediatricians and dermatologists, should be alert in order to recognize and treat HZ early, so as to avoid further complications.
