... Mechanistic Evidence The committee identified 10 publications reporting the development or exacerbation of CRPS after receiving an injection. Eight publications described cases that did not provide evidence beyond temporality (Bensasson et al., 1977; Genc et al., 2005; Jastaniah et al., 2003; Kachko et al., 2007; Palao Sanchez et al., 1997; Pirrung, 2010; Siegfried, 1997; Steinberg et al., 615

... These publications did not contribute to the weight of mechanistic evidence. Described below are publications reporting clinical, diagnostic, or experimental evidence that contributed to the weight of mechanistic evidence.

... did not include convincing evidence beyond a temporal relationship between injection of a vaccine and development of CRPS. The committee assesses the mechanistic evidence regarding an as sociation between the injection of a vaccine and CRPS as low intermediate based on experimental evidence and one case.

... Mechanistic Evidence The committee identified three publications and three Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) reports describing the development of deltoid bursitis after administration of a vaccine by injection.
From page 619...
... Weight of Mechanistic Evidence The publications, described above, presented clinical evidence sufficient for the committee to conclude that the injection of a vaccine was a contributing cause of deltoid bursitis. The clinical descriptions provided by

... The committee assesses the mechanistic evidence regarding an as sociation between the injection of a vaccine and deltoid bursitis as strong based on 16 cases presenting definitive clinical evidence. Causality Conclusion Conclusion 12.2: The evidence convincingly supports a causal relationship between the injection of a vaccine and deltoid bursitis.

... Case 3 describes a 26-year-old man who developed syncope less than 3 minutes after receiving tetanus-diphtheria and measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines. The patient suffered a linear nondepressed skull fracture and contusions of the frontal and temporal regions.

... Causality Conclusion Conclusion 12.3: The evidence convincingly supports a causal re lationship between the injection of a vaccine and syncope. CONCLUDING SECTION Table 12-1 provides a summary of the epidemiologic assessments, mechanistic assessments, and causality conclusions for injection-related adverse events.
