COVID-19 Vaccine-Related Myocardial and Pericardial Inflammation.
Review in Current cardiology reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
purpose of reviewTo review myocarditis and pericarditis developing after COVID-19 vaccinations and identify the management strategies. RECENT
findingsCOVID-19 mRNA vaccines are safe and effective. Systemic side effects of the vaccines are usually mild and transient. The incidence of acute myocarditis/pericarditis following COVID-19 vaccination is extremely low and ranges 2-20 per 100,000. The absolute number of myocarditis events is 1-10 per million after COVID-19 vaccination as compared to 40 per million after a COVID-19 infection. Higher rates are reported for pericarditis and myocarditis in COVID-19 infection as compared to COVID-19 vaccines. COVID-19 vaccine-related inflammatory heart conditions are transient and self-limiting in most cases. Patients present with chest pain, shortness of breath, and fever. Most patients have elevated cardiac enzymes and diffuse ST-segment elevation on electrocardiogram. Presence of myocardial edema on T2 mapping and evidence of late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging are also helpful additional findings. Patients were treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and colchicine with corticosteroids reserved for refractory cases. At least 3-6 months of exercise abstinence is recommended in athletes diagnosed with vaccine-related myocarditis. COVID-19 vaccination is recommended in all age groups for the overall benefits of preventing hospitalizations and severe COVID-19 infection sequela.
