Recovery from Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue syndrome developed after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccination: A case report.
Article in PCN reports : psychiatry and clinical neurosciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a neurological adverse effect after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccinations. However, clinicians do not recognize the condition well, and no case report has shown a full recovery. Case Presentation: We present a 65-year-old Japanese female who experienced severe fatigue, postexertional malaise, orthostatic intolerance, and various symptoms after her third SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. Following thorough examinations and excluding other potential diagnoses, she met the diagnostic criteria for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). The symptoms persisted for 30 months and improved ultimately with comprehensive treatment and a self-management strategy, including pacing management, pharmacological treatments, and psychiatric interventions to support those struggling with the despair over the devastating symptoms. Conclusion: This case report describes ME/CFS following the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and its full recovery. It illustrates the importance of considering the differential diagnosis of psychiatric disorders and addressing the condition through psychiatric interventions. Our findings provide new insights into treating ME/CFS and the vaccination-related adverse effects.
