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

backgroundUtility of repeated boosts of anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in persons with MS (pwMS) treated with ocrelizumab is questioned.

objectiveInvestigate antiviral antibody and T-cell responses after mRNA vaccination for SARS-CoV-2 in ocrelizumab-treated pwMS.

methodsPeripheral blood mononuclear cells were stimulated with SARS-CoV-2 peptide pools and T-cell reactivity was assessed by ELISPOT for IFN-γ detection, and by multiparametric flow cytometry analyses for assessment and characterization of T-cell activation. Anti-SARS-CoV-2 spike and nucleocapsid antibodies were analyzed in plasma of pwMS using two commercial platforms.

resultsELISPOT assay against the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 showed that COVID vaccination with mRNA results in the development of a robust specific T-cell reactivity that is sustained over repeated cycles of vaccination and tends to decline 2 years after last boost. Flow cytometry analysis following stimulation with SARS-CoV-2 peptide pools confirmed the presence of CD8

conclusionsRepeated cycles of vaccination increase T and B-cell reactivity against SARS-CoV-2.
