Vaccination status and disease severity of COVID-19 in different phases of the pandemic.
Article in Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This study aimed to explore the clinical profile and the impact of vaccination status on various health outcomes among COVID-19 patients diagnosed in different phases of the pandemic, during which several variants of concern (VOCs) circulated in South Carolina (SC). The current study included 861,526 adult COVID-19 patients diagnosed between January 2021 and April 2022. We extracted their information about demographic characteristics, vaccination, and clinical outcomes from a statewide electronic health record database. Multiple logistic regression models were used to compare clinical outcomes by vaccination status in different pandemic phases, accounting for key covariates (e.g. historical comorbidities). A reduction in mortality was observed among COVID-19 patients during the whole study period, although there were fluctuations during the Delta and Omicron dominant periods. Compared to non-vaccinated patients, full-vaccinated COVID-19 patients had lower mortality in all dominant variants, including Pre-alpha (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 0.33; 95%CI: 0.15-0.72), Alpha (aOR: 0.58; 95%CI: 0.42-0.82), Delta (aOR: 0.28; 95%CI: 0.25-0.31), and Omicron (aOR: 0.29; 95%CI: 0.26-0.33) phases. Regarding hospitalization, full-vaccinated parties showed lower risk of hospitalization than non-vaccinated patients in Delta (aOR: 0.44; 95%CI: 0.41-0.47) and Omicron (aOR: 0.53; 95%CI: 0.50-0.57) dominant periods. The findings demonstrated the protection effect of the COVID-19 vaccines against all VOCs, although some of the full-vaccinated population still have symptoms to varying degrees from COVID-19 disease at different phases of the pandemic.
