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

backgroundPrior studies suggest reduced humoral response to COVID-19 vaccination in immunosuppressed populations. Disease modifying therapies (DMTs) for multiple sclerosis (MS) have variable immunomodulatory effects, and limited data are available for all DMTs. We aimed to determine the impact of DMTs on antibody response to COVID-19 vaccination among MS patients.

methodsPatients with documented COVID-19 vaccination dates and anti-spike antibody results post-vaccination were identified between March-August 2021. Clinical data were retrospectively abstracted from chart review. Deidentified data were analyzed to evaluate antibody response, and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify clinical and demographic predictors of antibody response. Data analysis was completed with SAS Studio, v3.8.

resultsA total of 353 individuals had documented COVID-19 vaccine and antibody test dates (58% Pfizer, 38% Moderna, and 4% Johnson & Johnson). Of these 353 patients, 72% developed antibodies, with a mean antibody test interval of 53 days (median 46) post final vaccine dose. 100% of those on no DMT (n = 34), injectables (n = 20), teriflunomide (n = 10), natalizumab (n = 71), and 97.8% of those on fumarates (n = 46/47) had a positive antibody result. One patient on cladribine (n = 1) had a negative antibody result. Of those on sphingosine-1 phosphate (S1P) modulators, 72.4% (n = 21/29) had a positive antibody result. Of those on anti-CD20 therapies, 37.6% (n = 53/141) had a positive antibody result. Multivariate modeling of the total cohort showed anti-CD20 therapy was significantly associated with lower odds of positive antibody response (OR = 0.024, 95% CI 0.01;0.05, p < 0.0001). Among S1P modulators, increased duration of therapy, and not lymphopenia, may be associated with lower odds of positive antibody response. Multivariate modeling of anti-CD20 therapies showed therapy duration < 1 year (OR 8.14, 95% CI 2.896;22.898 p < .0001) and prior COVID-19 infection (OR = 3.95, 95% CI 1.137;13.726, p = .03) were significantly associated with higher odds of a positive antibody response. In patients with recent B-cell data, mean B-cell count was higher in antibody-positive individuals compared to antibody-negative (32.9 vs. 3.9 cells, p = .0056).

conclusionMS DMTs had variable impact on antibody response with mRNA and viral vector COVID-19 vaccines. All patients on no DMT, interferons, glatiramer acetate, teriflunomide, natalizumab, and nearly all on fumarates had positive antibody responses post-vaccine. S1P modulators and anti-CD20 therapies attenuated antibody response post-vaccine. For patients on anti-CD20 therapies, shorter duration of therapy and prior COVID-19 infection predicted positive antibody response. Further studies are needed to determine clinical significance of antibody testing, development of cellular mediated immunity, and benefits of booster vaccinations.
