Studies Included (n) | Immunocompromised patients (n) | Pooled Diagnostic Odds Ratio [DOR] (95% CI) | I2 test for heterogeneity | Vaccine Effectiveness* (95%CI) | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
All studies evaluating vaccinated immunocompromised patients (two doses) and symptomatic COVID-19 | 4 | 42,821 | 0.296 (0.108, 0.811) | 0% | 70.4% (18.9%, 89.2%) |
CI=Confidence Interval.
*Vaccine Effectiveness was estimated as 100% x (1-DOR).
[Chodick 2021; Havlin 2021; Khan 2021; Tenforde 2021*]
*We have opted to include in our meta-analysis Tenforde 2021 CID [50] because in Tenforde 2021 MMWR study [67] there are no raw numbers to perform the vaccine effectiveness for immunocompromised patients.
