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

Presentation of antigen with immune stimulating "signal" has been a cornerstone of vaccine design for decades. Here, the antigen plus immune "signal" of vaccines is modified to produce antigen-specific immunotherapies (antigen-SITs) that can potentially reprogram the immune response toward tolerance of an autoantigen. The codelivery of antigen with a cell adhesion inhibitor using Soluble Antigen Arrays (SAgAs) was previously shown to slow or halt experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a murine form of multiple sclerosis (MS). SAgAs are comprised of a hyaluronic acid backbone with cografted intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 ligand derived from αL-integrin (CD11a237-246, "LABL") and an encephalitogenic epitope peptide of proteolipid protein (PLP139-151, "PLP"). Here, the physical characteristics of the carrier were investigated to evaluate how structure, size, and solubility drive the immune response when treating EAE. A bifunctional peptide (small, soluble), SAgAs (large, soluble), and PLGA nanoparticles (large, insoluble) all displaying PLP and LABL in equimolar ratios were compared. Maximum EAE suppression was achieved with coincident display of both peptides on a soluble construct.
