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

backgroundBergamo was the most severely affected Italian province at the onset of the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. The liver transplant (LT) patient population should be among the more sensitized to the concept of health prevention. Long-term data on both perception and outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in LT recipients since the COVID-19 vaccine became available in Italy are still lacking.

methodsFrom May to October 2023, a survey on actively followed LT recipients at our institution was carried on by the local patient' advocacy (

resultsOut of the consecutive 753 adult LT recipients invited to the survey, 356 responded (47.3%) [71% male, 63 years old (20-85), LT performed a mean of 9 years (1-26) before vaccination] and were included in the analysis. All patients received the first vaccine dose between December 2020 and January 2022 (81.7% Cominarty

conclusionsCOVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective in LT recipients, underlining once again the importance of vaccination in this special population at higher risk of complications from communicable infectious diseases.
