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

Here we report on the safety, immunogenicity, and vaccine efficacy of the naturally occurring plasmid-free attenuated Chlamydia trachomatis L2-25667R (L2R) strain in a murine infection model. Intravaginal immunization induced both chlamydial specific serum antibody and systemic CD4(+) Th1 biased immune responses but failed to induce local IgA antibodies. Immunization induced no pathological changes in the urogenital tract. Protective immunity was evaluated by vaginal challenge with a natural occurring non-attenuated plasmid positive C. trachomatis urogenital strain (serovar D). Vaccinated mice were not protected from colonization/infection but exhibited a reduction in infectious burden at early time periods (1-2 weeks) post-challenge. Partial protective immunity did not protect against inflammatory disease. Thus, intravaginal vaccination with the live-attenuated L2R stain is safe, induces a systemic antibody and CD4(+) Th1 biased immune response, but its protective efficacy is limited to reducing chlamydial burden at early time periods post-infection.
