Mathematical Modeling Evaluates How Vaccinations Affected the Course of COVID-19 Disease Progression.
Article in Vaccines, 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
The regulation policies implemented, the characteristics of vaccines, and the evolution of the virus continue to play a significant role in the progression of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Numerous research articles have proposed using mathematical models to predict the outcomes of different scenarios, with the aim of improving awareness and informing policy-making. In this work, we propose an expansion to the classical SEIR epidemiological model that is designed to fit the complex epidemiological data of COVID-19. The model includes compartments for vaccinated, asymptomatic, hospitalized, and deceased individuals, splitting the population into two branches based on the severity of progression. In order to investigate the impact of the vaccination program on the spread of COVID-19 in Greece, this study takes into account the realistic vaccination program implemented in Greece, which includes various vaccination rates, different dosages, and the administration of booster shots. It also examines for the first time policy scenarios at crucial time-intervention points for Greece. In particular, we explore how alterations in the vaccination rate, immunity loss, and relaxation of measures regarding the vaccinated individuals affect the dynamics of COVID-19 spread. The modeling parameters revealed an alarming increase in the death rate during the dominance of the delta variant and before the initiation of the booster shot program in Greece. The existing probability of vaccinated people becoming infected and transmitting the virus sets them as catalytic players in COVID-19 progression. Overall, the modeling observations showcase how the criticism of different intervention measures, the vaccination program, and the virus evolution has been present throughout the various stages of the pandemic. As long as immunity declines, new variants emerge, and vaccine protection in reducing transmission remains incompetent; monitoring the complex vaccine and virus evolution is critical to respond proactively in the future.
