The relationship between the number of COVID-19 vaccines and infection with Omicron ACE2 inhibition at 18-months post initial vaccination in an adult cohort of Canadian paramedics.
Article in Access microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has rapidly evolved since late 2019, due to highly transmissible Omicron variants. While most Canadian paramedics have received COVID-19 vaccination, the optimal ongoing vaccination strategy is unclear. We investigated neutralizing antibody (NtAb) response against wild-type (WT) Wuhan Hu-1 and Omicron BA.4/5 lineages based on the number of doses and past SARS-CoV-2 infection, at 18 months post-initial vaccination (with a Wuhan Hu-1 platform mRNA vaccine [BNT162b2 or mRNA-1273]). Demographic information, previous COVID-19 vaccination, infection history, and blood samples were collected from paramedics 18 months post-initial mRNA COVID-19 vaccine dose. Outcome measures were ACE2 percent inhibition against Omicron BA.4/5 and WT antigens. We compared outcomes based on number of vaccine doses (two vs. three) and previous SARS-CoV-2 infection status, using the Mann-Whitney U test. Of 657 participants, the median age was 40 years (IQR 33-50) and 251 (42 %) were females. Overall, median percent inhibition to BA.4/5 and WT was 71.61 % (IQR 39.44-92.82) and 98.60 % (IQR 83.07-99.73), respectively. Those with a past SARS-CoV-2 infection had a higher median percent inhibition to BA.4/5 and WT, when compared to uninfected individuals overall and when stratified by two or three vaccine doses. When comparing two vs. three WT vaccine doses among SARS-CoV-2 negative participants, we did not detect a difference in BA.4/5 percent inhibition, but there was a difference in WT percent inhibition. Among those with previous SARS-CoV-2 infection(s), when comparing two vs. three WT vaccine doses, there was no observed difference between groups. These findings demonstrate that additional Whttps://www.covid19immunitytaskforce.ca/citf-databank/#accessing https://www.covid19immunitytaskforce.ca/citf-databank/#accessinguhan Hu-1 platform mRNA vaccines did not improve NtAb response to BA.4/5, but prior SARS-CoV-2 infection enhances NtAb response.
