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

Multiple sclerosis immunomodulatory treatments such as cladribine, which affects both B- and T-lymphocytes, can potentially alter the humoral response to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. This monocenter retrospective study reports on anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody response in cladribine treated MS patients and we compare the response in patients vaccinated before and after an 18-week interval after last cladribine dose. Of the 34 patients (5 patients ≤ 18 weeks and 29 patients > 18 weeks after last cladribine dose) that were included, 32 reached seropositivity (94 %). All patients vaccinated < 18 weeks after last cladribine dose reached seropositivity. This study confirms findings of earlier reports that cladribine-treated MS patients show an adequate humoral response after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, even when vaccinated early (≤18 weeks) after last cladribine dose.
