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

Targeting dendritic cell mannose receptors by mannosylating antigens represents a promising vaccination strategy. Using the model antigen ovalbumin (OVA) expressed recombinantly in bacterial and yeast vectors, we have previously demonstrated fungal mannosylation enhances antigen immunogenicity in the context of CD4(+) T cell responses. However, because protection against many tumors and pathogens is thought to require MHC class I-restricted T cell responses, the capacity of differentially mannosylated OVA antigens to induce antigen-specific CD8(+) T cell proliferation was determined. We found that mannosylated yeast-derived OVA antigens were more potent than their unmannosylated counterparts at inducing antigen-specific T cell proliferation. However, the type of mannosylation was critical as addition of extensive O-linked mannosylation increased lymphoproliferative responses while the presence of N-linked mannosylation was associated with decreased responses. Mannosylated OVA failed to stimulate TNF-alpha and IL-12 production from dendritic cells. These data suggest that vaccines incorporating mannosylation must take into account how the mannose groups are linked to the core antigen and may need to include an adjuvant to stimulate cytokine production.
