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

Kidney transplant recipients who are at increased risk for COVID-19 infection and associated morbidity and mortality have been shown to be prone to an impaired humoral immune response to a standard vaccination schedule against COVID-19 with two doses of SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccines. In this study, response rate of 94 kidney transplant recipients without detectable seroconversion after two doses of a mRNA vaccine who were offered a timely third mRNA vaccine after completion of the standard vaccination schedule was retrospectively analyzed. After a median of 28 days, antibody titers against the S1 spike protein showed a non-response rate of 53%. No significant risk factors for non-response could be identified. The responders showed a high variation in antibody titers (median 73.9 BAU/mL, IQR 221.5). In conclusion, a third booster mRNA vaccine in non-responding kidney transplant recipients leads to a detectable humoral immune response in approximately half of the patients. In the seroconversion group, antibody titers were highly variable, indicating that even non-responders to the standard vaccination schedule might develop a significant humoral immune response after a timely booster vaccine.
