Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the immune response (specifically IgG levels) to the COVID-19 vaccine in kidney disease patients undergoing immunosuppressive treatment after their third dose.
- Patients with kidney disease on immunosuppressive treatment showed significantly lower IgG levels compared to those not on treatment, highlighting the impact of immunosuppression on vaccine response.
- Additionally, specific treatments like glucocorticoids or rituximab influenced the effectiveness of the vaccination, with some patients showing little to no immune response following the vaccine.
