1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundWe investigated factors associated with the anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike antibody titer after the second dose of the BNT162b2 messenger RNA coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine in Japanese patients undergoing hemodialysis.

methodsOverall, 75 patients (41 men, 34 women; mean age 71.4 ± 12.2 years) with a hemodialysis duration of 5.7 ± 6.1 [interquartile range, 1.0-8.5] years were enrolled in this single-center, prospective, cross-sectional study. We used multiple linear regression analysis to determine the relationships of the anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody titer with patient demographic and clinical parameters. We also compared the anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody titer between hemodialysis patients and 22 healthcare workers (10 men, 12 women; mean age 48.5 ± 14.4 years).

resultsAutoimmune disease presence (standard coefficient [β] =  - 0.290, p = 0.018), lymphocyte counts (β = 0.261, p = 0.015), hemoglobin levels (β = 0.290, p = 0.009), and blood urea nitrogen concentrations (β = 0.254, p = 0.033) were significantly and independently correlated with the log-anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody titer. The anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody titer was significantly lower in hemodialysis patients than in healthcare workers (3589 ± 3921 [813-4468] vs. 12,634 ± 18,804 [3472-10,257] AU/mL; p < 0.002).

conclusionsAutoimmune disease presence, lymphocyte counts, hemoglobin levels, and blood urea nitrogen concentrations were associated with the anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike antibody titer after the second dose of the BNT162b2 messenger RNA COVID-19 vaccine in Japanese patients undergoing hemodialysis.
