HLA-DP diversity is associated with improved response to SARS-Cov-2 vaccine in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients show lower humoral vaccine responsiveness than immunocompetent individuals. HLA diversity, measured by the HLA evolutionary divergence (HED) metrics, reflects the diversity of the antigenic repertoire presented to T cells, and has been shown to predict response to cancer immunotherapy. We retrospectively investigated the association of HED with humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in allo-HSCT recipients. HED was calculated as pairwise genetic distance between alleles at HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DQB1, and -DPB1 loci in recipients and their donors. Low anti-spike IgG levels (<30 BAU/mL) were associated with short time from allo-SCT and low donor DPB1-HED, mostly related to donor DPB1 homozygosity. The diversity of donor HLA-DP molecules, assessed by heterozygosity or sequence divergence, may thus impact the efficacy of donor-derived CD4 T cells to sustain vaccine-mediated antibody response in allo-HSCT recipients.
