Immunogenicity and Safety of Adjuvanted Recombinant Zoster Vaccine in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients on Anti-Cellular Biologic Agents or JAK Inhibitors: A Prospective Observational Study.
Observational study in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07280741 (Efficacy, Immunogenicity, and Safety of the Recombinant Herpes Zoster Vaccine), which is not on this map. Cited by 30 papers, 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.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients on JAK inhibitors (JAKi) have an increased HZ risk compared to those on biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs). Recently, the Adjuvanted Recombinant Zoster Vaccine (RZV) became available worldwide, showing good effectiveness in patients with inflammatory arthritis. Nevertheless, direct evidence of the immunogenicity of such a vaccine in those on JAKi or anti-cellular bDMARDs is still lacking. This prospective study aimed to assess RZV immunogenicity and safety in RA patients receiving JAKi or anti-cellular bDMARDs that are known to lead to impaired immune response. Patients with classified RA according to ACR/EULAR 2010 criteria on different JAKi or anti-cellular biologics (namely, abatacept and rituximab) followed at the RA clinic of our tertiary center were prospectively observed. Patients received two shots of the RZV. Treatments were not discontinued. At the first and second shots, and one month after the second shot, from all patients with RA, a sample was collected and RZV immunogenicity was assessed and compared between the treatment groups and healthy controls (HCs) receiving RZV for routine vaccination. We also kept track of disease activity at different follow-up times. Fifty-two consecutive RA patients, 44 females (84.61%), with an average age (±SD) of 57.46 ± 11.64 years and mean disease duration of 80.80 ± 73.06 months, underwent complete RZV vaccination between February and June 2022 at our center. At the time of the second shot (1-month follow-up from baseline), anti-VZV IgG titer increased significantly in both groups with similar magnitude (bDMARDs: 2258.76 ± 897.07 mIU/mL; JAKi: 2059.19 ± 876.62 mIU/mL,
