Determinants of the Level of Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG ANTibodiEs after Vaccination (DANTE-SIRIO 7) Study in a Large Cohort of Healthcare Workers.

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 aim of this study was to determine anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG concentrations and their major determinants in healthcare workers (HCWs) after full vaccination with the BNT162b2 vaccine. We recruited 847 individuals vaccinated with two doses of the BNT162b2 vaccine, who completed the questionnaire, and whose antibody concentrations were tested after 3 and 6 months after full vaccination. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG levels were measured on the routinely employed Siemens Atellica system. The cutoff for positivity was ≥21.8 BAU/mL. Three and 6 months after vaccination, the majority of participants were seropositive. Median concentrations of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG significantly decreased from 1145 BAU/mL (IQR: 543-2095) to 225 BAU/mL (IQR: 100-510). Major positive determinants of antibody levels were fever after both doses of vaccine, prior-COVID-19 exposure, and muscle pain after the first dose. Lack of symptoms after the second dose and time since vaccination were significant negative determinants of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG concentrations. No other factors, including age and gender, or underlying comorbidities had a significant effect on antibody levels in HCWs. The anti-SARS-CoV-2 response after two doses of BNT162b2 vaccine was independently associated with prior-COVID-19 exposure, time since vaccination, and the occurrence of symptoms after either dose of vaccine. Easily reportable adverse reactions may facilitate the identification of immune response in HCWs.
