Myocarditis/pericarditis following vaccination with BNT162b2, CoronaVac, and ChAdOx1 among adolescent and adult in Malaysia.
Article in Vaccine: X, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This study evaluates 21-day risk of myocarditis/pericarditis following COVID-19 vaccination among those aged 12 years and older in Malaysia. We used data from nationwide COVID-19 vaccine registry linked to hospital episode database to identify individuals vaccinated with BNT162b2, CoronaVac, or ChAdOx1 and hospitalised for myocarditis/pericarditis between 1 February 2021 and 28 February 2022. There were 87 myocarditis/pericarditis cases identified within 1-21 days after vaccination. Most cases were reported following BNT16262 vaccination (77.0%) with absolute risk of 0.33 cases/100,000 vaccinated persons or 1.73 per million doses administered. Highest risk was observed following second dose and in younger, male individuals. The risk of myocarditis/pericarditis following CoronaVac and ChAdOx1 were much lower compared to BNT162b2. The findings on higher risk observed among younger following mRNA vaccine were consistent with literature and important for targeted surveillance.
