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

Flublok(®) is a trivalent influenza vaccine manufactured using the baculovirus-insect cell system, which has a number of differences compared with the traditional embryonated chicken egg system. Flublok(®) is the first vaccine containing recombinant protein to be approved for the prevention of seasonal influenza, and is indicated in the USA in adults aged 18-49 years. In a large, placebo-controlled, phase III trial in individuals aged 18-49 years, Flublok(®) met the US FDA requirements for immunogenicity, effectiveness and safety, despite a high incidence of antigenic mismatch between confirmed cases of influenza and the vaccine component strains. Flublok(®) was also compared with Fluzone(®) in two noninferiority trials in older adults aged 50-64 or ≥65 years; although noninferiority was shown for a number of endpoints in these trials, Flublok(®) is not currently approved in these age groups. Flublok(®) is a useful and generally well-tolerated vaccination option for the prevention of seasonal influenza in adults aged 18-49 years, including those with egg allergy.
