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

Vaccines are commonly administered by injection using needles. Although transdermal microneedles are less-invasive promising alternatives, needle-free topical vaccination without involving physical damage to the natural skin barrier is still sought after as it can further reduce needle-induced anxiety and simply administration. However, this long-standing goal has been elusive since the intact skin is impermeable to most macromolecules. Here, we show an efficient, non-invasive transdermal vaccination in mice by employing two key innovations: first, the use of hyaluronan (HA) as vaccine carriers and, second, non-ablative laser adjuvants. Conjugates of a model vaccine ovalbumin (OVA) and HA-HA-OVA conjugates-induced more effective maturation of dendritic cells
