The Trajectory of the COVID-19 Vaccine Antibody Titers Over Time and the Association of Mycophenolate Mofetil in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients.
Observational study in Transplantation proceedings, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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 COVID-19 vaccine will be safe and effective in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTs). However, the blunted antibody responses were also of concern. Few studies have reported prolonged serologic follow-up after 2 doses of BNT162b2 vaccine in SOTs. We performed a single-center, prospective observational study of 78 SOTs who received 2 doses of BNT162b2 vaccine. We identified the trajectory of antibody titers after vaccination among SOTs with or without mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) or withdrawn from MMF. We found low seroconversion rates (29/42: 69%) and low antibody titers in SOTs treated with MMF. An inverse linear relationship between neutralizing antibody titers and MMF concentration was confirmed in restricted cubic spline plots (P for effect < .01, P for nonlinearity = .08). For the trajectory of antibody responses, seroconversion and improved antibody titers were observed after withdrawal from MMF in SOTs who showed seronegative or low antibody titers at the first visit after 2 doses of vaccine (P for effect < .01, P for nonlinearity < .05, and P for interaction < .01). We identified increased B-cell counts after withdrawal from MMF (P < .01). The recovery of antibody responses was seen in SOTs withdrawn from MMF. The trajectories of antibody responses were modified by MMF administration.
