Impact of Omicron BA.1 infection on BA.4/5 immunity in transplant recipients.

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
Mutations in the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 have allowed Omicron subvariants to escape neutralizing antibodies. The degree to which this occurs in transplant recipients is poorly understood. We measured BA.4/5 cross-neutralizing responses in 75 mostly vaccinated transplant recipients who recovered from BA.1 infection. Sera were collected at 1 and 6 months post-BA.1 infection, and a lentivirus pseudovirus neutralization assay was performed using spike constructs corresponding to BA.1 and BA.4/5. Uninfected immunized transplant recipients and health care worker controls were used for comparison. Following BA.1 infection, the proportion of transplant recipients with neutralizing antibody responses was 88.0% (66/75) against BA.1 and 69.3% (52/75) against BA.4/5 (P = .005). The neutralization level against BA.4/5 was approximately 17-fold lower than that against BA.1 (IQR 10.6- to 45.1-fold lower, P < .0001). BA.4/5 responses declined over time and by ≥0.5 log
