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

Patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases with a previous infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus have exaggerated responses to a single dose of COVID-19 vaccination as compared to fully vaccinated infection naive patients. The second dose is currently recommended at an extended gap after the infection, but the information available regarding response to the second dose in this subgroup is limited. Patients with AIRDs previously infected with COVID-19, who have received at least one dose of AZD1222/ChAdOx1 (n = 200) were included and stratified based on vaccine doses (V), and infection (I) into I + V, I + V + V, V + I, V + V + I. Anti-RBD (receptor binding domain) antibodies were compared across the four groups. In 49 patients of the I + V + V group (AZD12222), paired sera were compared for antibody levels and neutralization after each vaccine dose. Thirty patients with hybrid immunity after BBV152 and 25 with complete vaccination without infection were included as controls. The highest anti-RBD antibody levels were observed in the V + V + I group (18,219 ± 7702 IU/ml) with statistically similar titers in the I + V + V (10,392 ± 8514 IU/ml) and the I + V (8801 ± 8122 IU/ml). This was confirmed in the 49 paired samples that paradoxically showed a lowering of antibody titers after the second dose [9626 (IQR: 4575-18,785)-5781 (2484-11,906); p < 0.001]. Neutralization of the Delta variant was unaffected but Omicron neutralization was significantly reduced after the second dose [45.7 (5.3-86.53)-35% (7.3-70.9); p = 0.028]. Ancillary analyses showed that only the hybrid immune sera could neutralize the Omicron variant and AZD1222 hybrids performed better than BBV152 hybrids. The second dose of AZD1222 did not boost antibody titers in patients with RD who had COVID-19 previously. In the analysis of paired sera, the second dose led to a statistically significant reduction in antibody titers and also reduced neutralization of the Omicron variant.
