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

introductionMeningococcal disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide with reported epidemics and outbreaks in different parts of the world. Despite the availability of antimicrobial therapy, challenges remain in early recognition and prevention of disease. Several vaccines have been developed to date aiming at preventing disease spread. DISCUSSION: MenACWY-TT (Nimenrix™) has been extensively studied for use in different age groups. Phase II and III randomized trials have demonstrated its immunogenicity when administered in children aged 1 year and older, adolescents and adults. It has an acceptable safety profile with minor adverse events comparable to other vaccines. Follow up studies have shown persistence of protective antibodies up to three years. MenACWY-TT was safely and effectively co-administered with different recommended vaccines.

conclusionMenACWY-TT is a safe and immunogenic vaccine that can be used to protect against these four serogroups in individuals older than 1 year of age.
