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

Objective: The aim of this prospective cohort study is to analyse the humoral and cellular vaccine responses in paediatric heart transplant recipients (HTR, n = 12), and compare it with the response in healthy controls (HC, n = 14). All participants were 5-18 years old and vaccinated with mRNA vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 between December 2021 and May 2022. Methods: The humoral response was measured by quantifying antibody titers against SARS-CoV-2 spike protein (anti-S). The T-lymphocyte phenotype and SARS-CoV2-specific CD4 Results: After vaccination, humoral response was found in all HTR, although they showed lower levels of anti-S IgG compared to HC ( Conclusion: HTR had humoral response after vaccination, although they showed lower levels of specific anti-S antibodies compared to HC. There were no significant differences in the SARS-CoV2-specific cellular response between the two groups. Obtaining satisfactory data on this type of response could potentially challenge the current vaccine guideline recommendations.
