using notifyItemRemoved or notifyDataSetChanged with RecyclerView in Android

Use notifyItemRangeChanged(position, getItemCount()); after notifyItemRemoved(position);
You don’t need to use index, just use position. See code below.

private List<DetectedIssue> issues = new ArrayList<DetectedIssue>();

@Override
public void onBindViewHolder(RecyclerView.ViewHolder holder, int position) {
    // - get element from your dataset at this position
    // - replace the contents of the view with that element
    if(position >0){
        RiskViewHolder riskHolder = (RiskViewHolder)holder;

        riskHolder.button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                try {
                    issues.remove(position);
                    notifyItemRemoved(position);
                    //this line below gives you the animation and also updates the
                    //list items after the deleted item
                    notifyItemRangeChanged(position, getItemCount());

                } catch (SQLException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
        });
    }
}

@Override
public int getItemCount() {
    return issues.size();
}
