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

backgroundCytomegalovirus (CMV) is a leading cause of congenital infection and an important target for vaccine development.

methodsCMV seronegative girls between 12 and 17 years of age received CMV glycoprotein B (gB) vaccine with MF59 or saline placebo at 0, 1 and 6 months. Blood and urine were collected throughout the study for evidence of CMV infection based on PCR and/or seroconversion to non-vaccine CMV antigens.

results402 CMV seronegative subjects were vaccinated (195 vaccine, 207 placebo). The vaccine was generally well tolerated, although local and systemic adverse events were significantly more common in the vaccine group. The vaccine induced gB antibody in all vaccine recipients with a gB geometric mean titer of 13,400 EU; 95%CI 11,436, 15,700, after 3 doses. Overall, 48 CMV infections were detected (21 vaccine, 27 placebo). In the per protocol population (124 vaccine, 125 placebo) vaccine efficacy was 43%; 95%CI: -36; 76, p=0.20. The most significant difference was after 2 doses, administered as per protocol; vaccine efficacy 45%, 95%CI: -9; 72, p=0.08.

conclusionThe vaccine was safe and immunogenic. Although the efficacy did not reach conventional levels of significance, the results are consistent with a previous study in adult women (Pass et al. N Engl J Med 2009;360:1191) using the same formulation.
