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: SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination, recognized for high immunogenicity, frequently induces adverse reactions, especially fever. We previously reported a correlation between post-vaccination fever and specific antibody responses to the primary series and first booster. We herein report changes in adverse reactions and the correlation between post-vaccination fever and antibody responses across successive vaccinations, from monovalent to bivalent mRNA vaccines. Methods: This cohort study was conducted at a Japanese hospital to investigate adverse reactions to the monovalent primary, first booster, and BA.4/5 bivalent BNT162b2 vaccinations. Local and systemic reactions were reported through a self-reporting diary after each dose. The spike-specific IgG titers were measured following each vaccination. Results: Across 727 vaccinations in the vaccine series, the bivalent booster induced fewer adverse reactions than earlier doses. Fever ≥ 38.0 °C was significantly less frequent in the bivalent booster (12.3 %) compared to the primary series and monovalent booster (22.0 %, 26.2 %, p < 0.001). Reaction severity was also reduced in the bivalent booster. In the analysis of 70 participants with complete data for all doses, post-vaccination fever ≥ 38.0 °C exhibited the highest relative risk (RR) among all solicited reactions throughout the vaccine series (RR: 5.24 [95 % CI: 2.40-11.42] for monovalent and 6.24 [95 % CI: 2.14-18.15] for bivalent). The frequency of fever ≥ 38.0 °C after all doses was 8.6 % (6/70), with no fever ≥ 39.0 °C across all vaccinations. A high-grade post-vaccination fever was correlated with higher IgG titers, with multivariate analyses confirming this correlation as independent for each dose and unaffected by previous post-vaccination fever. Conclusions: The bivalent mRNA vaccine booster showed fewer and milder adverse reactions than the monovalent doses. Although vaccinees with a history of post-vaccination fever were more likely to experience fever after a subsequent dose, such recurrences were infrequent. A correlation between post-vaccination fever and increased IgG titers was identified for each vaccination, irrespective of post-vaccination fever history.
