1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Despite the success of influenza virus vaccines in reducing severe illness, their efficacy is suboptimal. We describe here the immunogenicity and protective capacity of replication-incompetent influenza virus-like particles (VLPs) which were generated entirely from cDNAs and lacked either the entire NS gene (encoding both the NS1 and NS2 protein) or only the NS2 gene. In mammalian cells infected with NS gene-deficient VLPs, the nucleoprotein, but not other viral proteins including hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA), was detected. In contrast, cells infected with VLPs expressing NS1 but not NS2 (NS2 knockout) expressed multiple viral proteins, including HA and NA. When challenged with lethal doses of an antigenically homologous mouse-adapted influenza virus, 94% of mice vaccinated with the NS2-knockout VLPs survived, compared with less than 10% of those given the NS-deficient VLPs. These results demonstrate the potential of replication-incompetent NS2-knockout VLPs as novel influenza vaccines and perhaps also as vectors to express genes from entirely unrelated pathogens.
