[Are SARS-CoV-2 reactive T cells detectable and potentially protective in patients under anti-CD20 treatment with an impaired humoral response?]
Article in Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The pandemic attributable to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has greatly changed life in most countries of the world for more than 1.5 years now. The spread could be more or less well-controlled and fatalities could partly be avoided by obligatory wearing of masks, contact restrictions and since the beginning of the year by vaccinations. Patients with chronic inflammatory diseases and organ transplant patients under immunosuppression, are somewhat more at risk to become ill with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The probability and severity of an infection depends on the ability of the humoral and cellular immune systems to effectively combat the virus. This can be substantially improved by vaccination. The B cell depleting monoclonal antibody rituximab (RTX) is frequently employed in rheumatic diseases, whereby antibody formation against the new pathogen within the framework of vaccination is restricted. Recent study results in patients treated with RTX indicate that an effective cellular immune response can be developed despite the impaired humoral response.
