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

The role of donor and recipient Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) immunologic status pre-transplantation has not been fully investigated in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients. Given the poor immunogenicity to vaccines in this population and the serious outcomes of COVID-19, adoptive transfer of immunity may offer important insight into improving protection for this vulnerable population. In this study, we evaluated the role of adoptive transfer of immunity at 1 month post-transplantation and 6 months post-transplantation after vaccination of recipients, based on pre-transplantation severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination and infection exposures of both recipient and donor. Using banked specimens from related donor allogeneic HSCT recipients and clinical data from both donors and recipients, anti-Spike (S) IgG titers were analyzed at 1, 3, and 6 months post-transplantation according to prior SARS-CoV-2 immunologic exposures. Recipients were excluded if they had received SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies or had infection in the first 6 months post-transplantation. Of the 53 recipient-donor pairs, 29 donors and 24 recipients had prior SARS-CoV-2 immunologic exposure. Recipient-donor pairs with no prior SARS-CoV-2 exposure (D0R0) had significantly lower anti-S IgG titers at 1 month compared to those with prior exposures (D1R1) (D0R0: median, 2.43 [interquartile range (IQR), .41 to 3.77]; D1R1: median, 8.42; IQR, 5.58 to 12.20]; P = .008). At 6 months, anti-S IgG titers were higher in recipients who were vaccinated at 3 months post-transplantation in the D1R1 cohort (median IgG, 148.34; IQR, 92.36 to 204.33) compared with the D0R0 cohort (median IgG, 38.74; IQR, 8.93 to 119.71). Current strategies should be optimized to enhance SARS-CoV-2 protection for HSCT recipients, including augmentation of the immune response for both donors and recipients prior to transplantation.
