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

A conformationally-biased, response-selective agonist of human C5a(65-74) (EP67) activated antigen presenting cells (APC) from aged C57Bl/6 mice in vitro and the generation of antigen (Ag)-specific antibody (Ab) responses in aged mice in vivo. EP67, induced the release of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6, TNFα, and INFγ from splenic APCs obtained from both aged and young mice. Both aged and young mice produced high Ag-specific IgG Ab titers when immunized with EP67-containing vaccines to ovalbumin (OVA-EP67) and to a protein (rPrp1) from the cell wall of Coccidioides (rPrp1-EP67). Immunization with EP67-containing vaccines resulted in higher IgG titers in both young and aged mice compared to mice immunized with OVA adsorbed to alum (OVA/alum) and Prp1 admixed with CpG (rPrp1 +CpG). Aged and young mice immunized with the EP67-containing vaccines generated higher titers of IgG1 and IgG2b relative to their aged-matched counterparts immunized with OVA/alum or Prp1 +CpG. These results indicate that EP67 induces humoral immunity in aged mice not obtainable with alum and CpG. These results support the use of EP67 as a potential vaccine adjuvant suited to the elderly.
