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

Objectives: We aimed to assess the immunologic response to BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine in ART-experienced people living with HIV (PLWH). Methods: In this pilot prospective study, we enrolled 20 PLWH (all on effective ART, 80% with CD4 cells count >500) and 52 immunocompetent health-care workers, as control. All subjects received two doses of vaccine 21 days apart. Serum samples were collected at different time points, immediately before first administration (BL) and 21 days after each dose (T1 and T2) and 45-50 days after second dose (T3). We evaluated the immune response in terms of frequency of responders and antibody titers against SARS-CoV-2 at each timepoint. The viro-immunological parameters of PLWH were also monitored. Results: We found that the participants displayed an immune response after the first dose that increased markedly at T2. At T3 a significantly descending trend of IgG levels was observed in both groups. No difference in humoral immune response assessed in terms of percentage of responders after first and second dose and in terms of IgG titers over time and at each time point was found between groups. Any significant variation in terms of viremia and immunological parameters was observed in PLWH. Conclusions: BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine appears immunogenic in this setting of PLWH eliciting an immune response comparable to that of healthy donors.
