Impact of Repeated Variant Exposures on Cellular and Humoral Immunogenicity Induced by SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines.
Article in Vaccines, 2024. 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThe emergence of the Omicron variant has complicated COVID-19 control and prompted vaccine updates. Recent studies have shown that a fourth dose significantly protects against infection and severe disease, though long-term immunity data remain limited. This study aimed to assess Anti-S-RBD antibodies and interferon-γ levels in healthcare workers 12 months after receiving bivalent Original/Omicron BA.4-5 fourth SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.
methodsIn this prospective cohort study, 549 healthcare workers were categorized by the initial vaccination schedule, with 229 individuals having received the fourth SARS-CoV-2 vaccine dose. Blood samples were collected from all participants 12 months post-vaccination.
resultsSignificant differences in Anti-S-RBD antibody levels were observed between those receiving a fourth dose and those who did not, while no differences were seen in interferon-γ levels. After 12 months, there were no significant differences in humoral and cellular immunity response between volunteers primoinfected or reinfected across different periods by the Omicron variant. A multivariable analysis revealed an association between high antibody levels (>6000 U/mL) and interferon-γ levels (OR: 3.13; 95% CI: 1.3-7.7;
conclusionsOverall, mRNA-based vaccines exhibited stronger long-term immunogenicity. Repeated exposure to the Omicron variant seems to mitigate immune imprinting from the wild-type SARS-CoV-2. An association was observed between high antibody levels and a strong cellular response, although the correlation was not linear.
