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

Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of tularemia, has attained the status of one of the high priority agents that could be used in the act of bioterrorism. Currently, there is no licensed vaccine for this highly infectious intracellular pathogen. Being a listed 'Category A' agent of the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), vaccines and therapeutics are immediately required against this pathogen. In this study, an immunoproteomic approach based on the techniques of 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) and immunoblotting combined with mass spectrometry (MS) was used for elucidation of immunogenic components and putative vaccine candidates. Whole-cell soluble protein extract of F. tularensis LVS (Ft LVS) was separated by 2DE, and immunoblots were developed with sera raised in rabbit after immunization with heat-killed Ft LVS. A total of 28 immunoreactive proteins were identified by tandem mass spectrometry. Rabbit immunoproteome of F. tularensis was compared with those previously reported using sera from human patients and in murine model. Out of 28 immunoreactive proteins identified in this study, 12 and 17 overlapping proteins were recognized by human and murine sera, respectively. Nine proteins were found immunogenic in all the three hosts, while eight new immunogenic proteins were found in this study. Identified immunoreactive proteins may find application in design and development of protein subunit vaccine for tularemia.
