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 aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the chemokine CCL19 (ELC) as an adjuvant for intradermal gene gun delivery of Her2/neu DNA and to investigate the role of B cells in CCL19-mediated enhancement of immune responses. Balb/c mice were immunized intramuscularly (i.m.) on days 1 and 15 with plasmid DNA (pDNA) (100 μg DNA) or intradermally (i.d.) by gene gun delivery (1-2 μg DNA). Administration of pDNA encoding Her2/neu (pDNA(Her2/neu) was compared with pDNA(Her2/neu) plus pDNA(CCL19), pDNA(CCL19), mock vector or uncoated gold particles/phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Tumor challenge was performed subcutaneously on day 25 with syngeneic Her2/neu(+) tumor cells (D2F2/E2). Intradermal immunization by gene gun led to an enhancement of tumor protection by the DNA vaccine as compared with i.m. immunization. The protective effect of the vaccine was further enhanced by coadministration of pDNA(CCL19) both after i.m. and i.d. immunization. Tumor protection was associated with Her2/neu-specific T cell and humoral immune responses. Experiments in B-cell-deficient μMT mice showed that B cells are crucial for CCL19-mediated enhancement of tumor rejection, most likely as antigen-presenting B cells. DNA vaccines against Her2/neu may play a future role in the treatment of Her2/neu-positive breast cancer patients in a clinical situation of minimal residual disease.
