According to this post,
Althor's Abacus cannot proc off Vampiric Embrace
.
However, some interesting notes from
WowWiki.com
:
Only applies to single-target Shadow damage from the Shadow Priest's spells. Shadow damage from other casters or wands is not affected.
The casting priest is also considered to be a member of their own party, even when not in a group, so receives two healing effects: one for 15% and another for 3%.
This buff was previously a castable Curse.
+Healing gear does not increase the amount healed by this spell. However, gear with Spell power will indirectly increase the healing by increasing shadow damage dealt.
Healing generated from Vampiric Embrace causes threat in the same way as other healing spells.
The healing effect is treated as a healing spell when applied to party members
. Therefore, Protection Paladins will gain mana as well as health from the effect of this spell through Spiritual Attunement. Mana gained is minimal - often in single digit (maximum is 2.5% of damage dealt), and only if the paladin is not already at full health. The healing done is affected by Mortal Strike effects.
See the part I emphasized there? It does count as a healing spell, but it should be noted that it's "damage-induced healing". If I remember correctly, Blizzard removed the ability for trinkets to proc from damage-induced heals and effects like
Fel Armor
.

Seems my info is outdated, can't get it to proc as shadow anymore. I used to see it fairly often but admittedly I haven't played shadow much lately even though the Abacus is still part of my shadow set for lack of better.

Well, aprox a month ago, checking recount after doing arenas as shadow(with altors + battlemaster) some arenas i had stayed in shadowform for whole fight, and the only thing which i had heal with was heal from abacus, heal from DP and heal from VE. looked to me like it heals on either DP or VE.
but if you are to use it in arena it doesnt matter tbh, because it will still be very usefull to pop your hp up (or your mates) if you need a heal(renew shadowform anyone?:j)
and well.. i dont really see why you would want to use it for anything but arena as shadow:)

Because shadow hates 179 sp. I know there are plenty of trinkets out there that are better than the Abacus, but 179 sp is still 179 sp.
