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

Understanding variables that influence antibody responses to COVID-19 vaccination within a population can provide valuable information on future vaccination strategies. In this population-based study, we examined the antibody responses to COVID-19 vaccination in Manitoba using residual serum specimens collected between January 2021 and March 2022 (n = 20,365). Samples were tested for spike and nucleocapsid IgG against SARS-CoV-2 using clinically validated assays. We assessed the impacts of multiple factors on post-vaccination antibody titres including type of vaccine, age, sex, geographic location, number of doses received, and timing of vaccination. Our investigation demonstrated that vaccination with one dose of Moderna mRNA-1273 elicited higher anti-spike IgG titres overall compared to Pfizer BNT162b2 vaccination, while one dose of Pfizer BNT162b2 followed by a second dose of Moderna mRNA-1273 exhibited higher titres than two doses of Pfizer BNT162b2 or Moderna mRNA-1273, irrespective of age. Age and time post-vaccination had considerable effects on antibody responses, with older age groups exhibiting lower anti-spike IgG titres than younger ages, and titres of those vaccinated with Pfizer BNT162b2 waning faster than those vaccinated with Moderna mRNA-1273 or a combination of Pfizer BNT162b2 and Moderna mRNA-1273. Antibody titres did not appear to be affected by sex or geographic location. Our results identify how factors such as age and type of vaccine can influence antibody responses to vaccination, and how antibody titres wane over time. This information highlights the importance of tailoring vaccine regimens to specific populations, especially those at increased risk of severe COVID-19 and can be used to inform future vaccination strategies, scheduling of booster doses, and public health measures.
