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

The field of vaccine adjuvants has been an area of active research and development because of the need to improve the generation of protective immunity to a large number of pathogens, as well as in diseases such as cancer. Adjuvants can also help induce stronger immune responses with fewer injections, and consequently improve both the feasibility and success rate of large-scale population vaccine campaigns in developing countries. A current challenge is to identify vaccine adjuvants of various classes (cytokines, toll-like receptor ligands, etc.) with specific immune-modulating properties in order to tailor the immune response to certain pathological situations. In this issue, Van Roey et al. [Eur. J. Immunol. 2012. 42: 353-363] explore one of these challenges, namely to identify novel mucosal adjuvants. Van Roey et al. show that the pro-allergic cytokine thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) promotes a strong B-cell response with production of secretory IgA at mucosal sites. Here, we discuss the importance and limits of these findings within the broader field of vaccine adjuvants, and the potential development of TSLP as a mucosal and B-cell adjuvant in humans.
