Abstract

Reports of ChAdOx1 vaccine–associated thrombocytopenia and vascular adverse events have led to some countries restricting its use. Using a national prospective cohort, we estimated associations between exposure to first-dose ChAdOx1 or BNT162b2 vaccination and hematological and vascular adverse even...

Using a national prospective cohort, we estimated associations between exposure to first-dose ChAdOx1 or BNT162b2 vaccination and hematological and vascular adverse events using a nested incident-matched case-control study and a confirmatory self-controlled case series (SCCS) analysis. An association was found between ChAdOx1 vaccination and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) (0&#x2013;27 d after vaccination; adjusted rate ratio (aRR) = 5.77, 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.41&#x2013;13.83), with an estimated incidence of 1.13 (0.62&#x2013;1.63) cases per 100,000 doses. An SCCS analysis confirmed that this was unlikely due to bias (RR&#x2009;=&#x2009;1.98 (1.29&#x2013;3.02)). There was also an increased risk for arterial thromboembolic events (aRR = 1.22, 1.12&#x2013;1.34) 0&#x2013;27 d after vaccination, with an SCCS RR of 0.97 (0.93&#x2013;1.02). For hemorrhagic events 0&#x2013;27 d after vaccination, the aRR was 1.48 (1.12&#x2013;1.96), with an SCCS RR of 0.95 (0.82&#x2013;1.11). A first dose of ChAdOx1 was found to be associated with small increased risks of ITP, with suggestive evidence of an increased risk of arterial thromboembolic and hemorrhagic events. The attenuation of effect found in the SCCS analysis means that there is the potential for overestimation of the reported results, which might indicate the presence of some residual confounding or confounding by indication. Public health authorities should inform their jurisdictions of these relatively small increased risks associated with ChAdOx1. No positive associations were seen between BNT162b2 and thrombocytopenic, thromboembolic and hemorrhagic events.</abstract><type>Journal Article</type><journal>Nature Medicine</journal><volume>27</volume><journalNumber>7</journalNumber><paginationStart>1290</paginationStart><paginationEnd>1297</paginationEnd><publisher>Springer Science and Business Media LLC</publisher><placeOfPublication/><isbnPrint/><isbnElectronic/><issnPrint>1078-8956</issnPrint><issnElectronic>1546-170X</issnElectronic><keywords/><publishedDay>1</publishedDay><publishedMonth>7</publishedMonth><publishedYear>2021</publishedYear><publishedDate>2021-07-01</publishedDate><doi>10.1038/s41591-021-01408-4</doi><url/><notes/><college>COLLEGE NANME</college><department>Health Data Science</department><CollegeCode>COLLEGE CODE</CollegeCode><DepartmentCode>HDAT</DepartmentCode><institution>Swansea University</institution><apcterm/><funders>MC_PC_19004/MRC_/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom MC_PC_19075/MRC_/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom MC_PC_13043/MRC_/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom MR/K006525/1/MRC_/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom MC_PC_20058/MRC_/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom</funders><projectreference/><lastEdited>2022-08-16T13:36:09.2325586</lastEdited><Created>2021-06-12T16:20:58.0499674</Created><path><level id="1">Faculty of Medicine, Health and Life Sciences</level><level id="2">Swansea University Medical School - Medicine</level></path><authors><author><firstname>C.
