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
backgroundVarious studies indicated blunted humoral responses to COVID-19 mRNA and viral vector vaccines among people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) on sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor (S1PR) modulators and anti-CD20 therapies (aCD20); however, limited evidence was found regarding SARS-CoV-2 serology after inactivated virus vaccination.
objectiveTo provide evidence regarding humoral response to COVID-19 inactivated virus vaccination among pwMS on disease-modifying therapies (DMTs).
methodsA cohort study was carried out in Isfahan, Iran, enrolling DMT-exposed pwMS and unexposed (UX) healthy participants. Post-vaccination anti-SARS-CoV-2 Spike IgG serology testing was carried out among the participants and compared between participants based on their DMT exposure, using proper statistical tests. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to control for confounding. Association between the second vaccine dose-to-phlebotomy (vac2phleb) and the humoral response was investigated in each DMT-exposed cohort, using linear regression. Among the aCD20 cohort, the association of the last aCD20 infusion-to-first vaccine dose period with serostatus was investigated using an unpaired t-test.
resultsAfter enrolling 358 participants (144 pwMS and 214 healthy), blunted humoral responses were only observed in fingolimod (Log
conclusionThe results of this study mirrored the results of previous studies among mRNA- or viral vector-vaccinated pwMS on DMTs. Therefore, it can be concluded that mode of action contributes less than timing, to the efficiency of vaccination strategies among pwMS on DMTs - especially the ones on S1PR modulators and aCD20. Meanwhile, the mentioned pwMS should be advised to receive early boosters and remain vigilant until further data becomes available and more efficient vaccination strategies are crafted.
