The Motorik-Modul (MoMo) Longitudinal Study aims to contribute to long-term improvement in the health of German children and adolescents by focusing on: (i) the development of physical fitness and physical activity (including period effects); (ii) the individual and physical/social environmental determinants of the development of physical fitness and physical activity; and (iii) the impact of physical fitness and physical activity on the development of physical and mental health. The MoMo Longitudinal Study began with a nationwide representative sample of 4529 children and adolescents who ranged in age from 4-17 years at the study baseline (2003-2006). The first survey wave of the MoMo Longitudinal Study was conducted between 2009 and 2012, with two subsequent survey waves to be conducted between 2014 and 2016 and 2018 and 2020, respectively. The MoMo Longitudinal Study includes a physical fitness test profile, a physical activity questionnaire, and subjective and objective measures of health from the German Health Interview and Examination Survey (KiGGS).

BackgroundWhile anti-SARS-CoV-2 vaccination success in kidney transplant recipients (KTR) after two doses and 1273-mRNA was associated with higher seroconversion rates compared to BNT162b2-mRNA in our “DIA-Vacc Study” (NCT04799808), it remains unclear whether this may also be the case in non-responding KTR after a third vaccination dose.Materials and MethodsNon-responding KTR (after two mRNA vaccinations) were investigated 4.5–6 months after study enrollment at first vaccination. One hundred sixty-six of 193 received a third vaccination between 3.5 and 5 months after the initial study enrollment and were always investigated 4 weeks later, exploring humoral immune response (ELISA) and specific cellular responses (interferon-γ release assay). Sixty-seven of 193 measurements in KTR were done immediately before the third vaccination or in KTR without further vaccination at 4.5–6 months.ResultsOf 193 KTR with no initial immune response 4 weeks after the second vaccination, 106/87 were immunized twice with 1273-mRNA/BNT162b2-mRNA, respectively. Additional mRNA booster vaccination led to positive seroconversion rates of 30–50%, while 16% of the initial non-responders demonstrated a delayed seroconversion without any booster vaccination. Using logistic regression analysis, a positive IgG response after the third vaccination was 23% more likely if the primary vaccine type was 1273-mRNA compared to BNT162b2-mRNA (OR = 4.420, 95% CI [1.208–16.173], p = 0.025). Primary vaccine type, a weak anti-SpikeS1 IgG response 4 weeks after second vaccination (3.2–35.2 BAU/ml, p < 0.001) and a lack of MMF/MPA as part of the immunosuppressive treatment (trend, p = 0.06) but no other variables studied correlated with seroconversion success.ConclusionThis observational study adds important evidence toward using 1273-mRNA as the primary mRNA vaccine type for immunosuppressed KTR.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
