Neutralizing antibodies in milk and blood of lactating women vaccinated for SARS-CoV-2: a systematic review / Anticorpos neutralizantes no leite e no sangue de lactantes vacinadas para SARS-CoV-2: uma revisão sistemática

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the presence of neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 found in the breast milk and blood of vaccinated lactating women with those not vaccinated. Data source The study was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) under CRD42021287554 and followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional studies that evaluated antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in the milk and blood of vaccinated mothers and had as control group unvaccinated mothers were eligible. Health Sciences Descriptors (DeCs), Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) and Emtree descriptors were used for the Virtual Health Library (VHL), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (Medline/Pubmed), and Embase databases, respectively. In the Web of Science and Scopus, the strategy was adapted. No restrictions on the publication period and language were set. Data synthesis: The search identified 233 records, of which 128 duplicates and 101 papers that did not meet the inclusion criteria were excluded. Hence, four cohort studies were eligible. Nursing mothers vaccinated with the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna vaccines showed antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in their blood and breast milk. Conclusions: Vaccinated lactating women had higher levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG) and A (IgA) in serum and breast milk than unvaccinated women.

RESUMO

RESUMO Objetivo: Comparar a presença de anticorpos neutralizantes contra o SARS-CoV-2 no leite materno e no sangue das lactantes vacinadas em relação àquelas não vacinadas. Fontes de dados Foi efetuado registro no International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews — PROSPERO (CRD42021287554) e foram seguidas as diretrizes do Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Foram elegíveis estudos de coorte, caso-controle e transversais que avaliaram anticorpos contra o SARS-CoV-2 no leite e no sangue de lactantes vacinadas e tiveram como grupo controle lactantes não vacinadas. Utilizaram-se os Descritores em Ciências da Saúde (DeCs), Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) e Emtree para as bases Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (Medline/PubMed) e Embase, respectivamente. Na Web of Science e Scopus foi feita adaptação da estratégia. Não foram estabelecid as restrições quanto ao período de publicação e idioma. Síntese dos dados As buscas identificaram 233 registros. Foram excluídos 128 duplicados e 101 fora dos critérios de inclusão, e quatro estudos de coorte foram elegíveis. As lactantes vacinadas com Pfizer-BioNTech e Moderna apresentaram anticorpos contra SARS-CoV-2 no sangue e no leite materno. Conclusões: As mulheres lactantes vacinadas apresentaram níveis mais elevados de imunoglobulina G (IgG) e A (IgA) no soro e no leite materno em comparação com as mulheres não vacinadas.
