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

Strategies to optimize formulations of multisubunit malaria vaccines require a basic knowledge of underlying protective immune mechanisms induced by each vaccine component. In the present study, we evaluated the contribution of antibody-mediated and cell-mediated immune mechanisms to the protection induced by immunization with two blood-stage malaria vaccine candidate antigens, apical membrane antigen 1 (AMA-1) and merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP-1). Immunologically intact or selected immunologic knockout mice were immunized with purified recombinant Plasmodium chabaudi AMA-1 (PcAMA-1) and/or the 42-kDa C-terminal processing fragment of P. chabaudi MSP-1 (MSP-1(42)). The efficacy of immunization in each animal model was measured as protection against blood-stage P. chabaudi malaria. Immunization of B-cell-deficient JH(-/-) mice indicated that PcAMA-1 vaccine-induced immunity is largely antibody dependent. In contrast, JH(-/-) mice immunized with PcMSP-1(42) were partially protected against P. chabaudi malaria, indicating a role for protective antibody-dependent and antibody-independent mechanisms of immunity. The involvement of gammadelta T cells in vaccine-induced PcAMA-1 and/or PcMSP-1(42) protection was minor. Analysis of the isotypic profile of antigen-specific antibodies induced by immunization of immunologically intact mice revealed a dominant IgG1 response. However, neither interleukin-4 and the production of IgG1 antibodies nor gamma interferon and the production of IgG2a/c antibodies were essential for PcAMA-1 and/or PcMSP-1(42) vaccine-induced protection. Therefore, for protective antibody-mediated immunity, vaccine adjuvants and delivery systems for AMA-1- and MSP-1-based vaccines can be selected for their ability to maximize responses irrespective of IgG isotype or any Th1 versus Th2 bias in the CD4(+)-T-cell response.
