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

Background: Recent studies have shown good serological and cellular immune responses in people living with human immunodeficiency virus Methods: We followed up a group of PLWH who received 3 doses of the mRNA BNT162b2 vaccine and for whom data of humoral immune response after 2 vaccine doses were available. Patients provided a blood sample 4-6 months after the booster dose. The aim of the study was to measure the serological and cellular response after the third dose and to evaluate factors associated with the vaccine response. Results: Fifty patients have provided a serum sample for serological evaluation after the booster. The anti-receptor-binding domain (RBD) immunoglobulin (Ig) G titers were higher after the booster with a median delta of 3240 arbitrary units/mL. The median CD4 Conclusions: The anti-RBD IgG level after 3 doses of mRNA BNT162b2 vaccine was higher than the level after 2 doses, suggesting additional value of the booster. Cellular response did not further increase after a booster.
