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

People with immunocompromising conditions (IC) are at increased risk of severe COVID-19 and death. These individuals show weaker immunogenicity following vaccination than individuals without IC, yet immunogenicity after SARS-CoV-2 infection is poorly understood. To address this gap, the presence of infection-induced antibodies in sera following a positive COVID-19 test result was compared between patients with and without IC. A commercial laboratory provided patient data gathered during July 2020-February 2022 on COVID-19 viral test results and antibody assay results, which included infection-induced (anti-N) antibody presence. Participants were categorized into having or not having IC based on if there was an indicative diagnostic code on their health record for a five-year period prior to the study period. Anti-N presence in sera from people with a positive COVID-19 test result was compared by IC status for four post-infection periods: 14-90, 91-180, 181-365, and 365+ days. A longitudinal, logistic regression produced adjusted odds ratios comparing anti-N prevalence among specimens with and without associated IC, adjusted for age, sex, residence in a metro area, and social vulnerability index (SVI) tertile. Data included 17,025 anti-N test results from 14,690 patients, 1,424 (9.7%) of which had at least one IC on record. In an adjusted comparison to patients without IC, patients with any IC were 0.61 times as likely to have infection-induced antibodies (99% CI: 0.40-0.93), during the 14-90 days following infection. Similar patterns were found when comparing people with two specific types of IC to people without any IC: (1) solid malignancies and (2) other intrinsic immune conditions. These findings stress the importance of prevention measures for people with IC, such as additional vaccination doses and consistent mask use before and after a documented infection.
