Abstract excerpt
HLA genes exhibit a high degree of polymorphism, contributing to genetic variability known to influence immune responses to infection. Here we investigate associations between HLA polymorphism and serological and T-lymphocyte responses to the BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1 SARS-CoV-2 vaccines within a population receiving maintenance haemodialysis (HD) for End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Our primary objective was to...
