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

Cytomegalovirus infections are an important cause of disease for which no licensed vaccine exists. Recent studies have focused on the gH/gL/UL128-131 complex as antibodies to gH/gL/UL128-131 neutralize viral entry into epithelial cells. Prior studies have used cells from the retinal pigment epithelium, while to prevent transmission, vaccine-induced antibodies may need to block viral infection of epithelial cells of the oral or genital mucosa. We found that gH/gL/UL128-131 is necessary for efficient viral entry into epithelial cells derived from oral and genital mucosa, that short peptides from UL130 and UL131 elicit high titer neutralizing antibodies in rabbits, and that such antibodies neutralize viral entry into epithelial cells derived from these relevant tissues. These results suggest that single subunits or peptides may be sufficient to elicit potent epithelial entry neutralizing responses and that secretory antibodies to such neutralizing epitopes have the potential to provide sterilizing immunity by blocking initial mucosal infection.
