Coronavirus Disease 2019 Frequency After CoronaVac Vaccine: Ascovid Study.
Article in Thoracic research and practice, 2023. 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
objectiveIt is accepted that the only way to end severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 epidemic is through community vaccination. The frequency and clinical features of infection after vaccination are not known clearly. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency and clinical features of coronavirus disease 2019 seen after either the first or second dose of CoronaVac vaccination in healthcare workers and their relatives. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis is a cross-sectional retrospective survey study. The study was carried out in 2013 volunteers, including 1903 (94.5%) healthcare workers and 110 (5.5%) relatives of healthcare workers. The frequency and clinical features of coronavirus disease 2019 before and after the first or second dose of CoronaVac vaccination were retrospectively evaluated using an online questionnaire conducted in July 2021.
resultsA total of 2013 people, 1312 women and 701 men, participated in the study. Of these individuals, 245 (12.1%) were polymerase chain reaction positive for coronavirus disease 2019 before vaccination. Of this group, 185 (75.5% of polymerase chain reaction positives and 9.1% of the whole population) received home-based therapy, while 38 (15.5%) received hospital admission. Asymptomatic polymerase chain reaction positivity before vaccination was seen in 22 (9%) individuals. There were 177 (8.8%) participants who developed polymerase chain reaction positivity at any time after vaccination. In 129 (72.8%) of these participants, polymerase chain reaction positivity occurred 21 days after the second dose of vaccine. While the number of patients hospitalized before vaccination was 38 (15.5% of the polymerase chain reaction positivity group and 1.89% of the general population), the number of patients hospitalized after the vaccination was 17 (10.1% of the polymerase chain reaction positivity group and 0.80% of the general population). The decrease in hospitalization proportion was statistically significant (P = .002).
conclusionThe frequency of coronavirus disease 2019, severe illness, and hospitalization rates were found to be lower in postvaccination period. The vaccine is effective in preventing coronavirus disease 2019 and severe disease.
