Efficacy and safety profile of two-dose SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in cancer patients: An observational study in China.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe new coronavirus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has produced a global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), resulting in modifications to public health policies on a universal scale. SARS-CoV-2 vaccine has evolved as the most effective and secure way for protecting healthy individuals against COVID-19. Patients with cancer were excluded from clinical trials due to their increased COVID-19 risk and current immunosuppressing therapy. Safety and effectiveness evidence is insufficient for SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in cancer patients.
aimTo assess the efficacy and safety of two-dose SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in cancer patients.
methodsA multicenter observational study was performed at ten Chinese hospitals between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021. Each participant in the research received two doses of vaccination. A total of 215 healthy people were screened and 132 eligible patients with cancer were recruited. In order to verify the safety of the second dose of the vaccine, a side-effect report was compiled. Two weeks following the second vaccination dose, subjects underwent an analogous questionnaire survey. Utilizing a magnetic particle-based chemiluminescence immunoassay, serum levels of anti-SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies were measured to determine the effectiveness of vaccination. IgG levels ≥ 10 AU/mL were considered seropositive.
resultsAll the 347 eligible patients completed the follow-up, and anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies were detected. Local pain at the injection location was the most common side effect mentioned by all responders, with an increased incidence in cancer patients than the healthy people after the second dose vaccine (17.2%
conclusionTwo-dose Chinese vaccines are effective and safe in cancer patients. However, further research is required on the efficacy in elderly cancer patients and those on active immunosuppressive treatment.
