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

objectives/hypothesisRecurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP) is a benign disease caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) types 6 and 11. Although a prophylactic vaccine against RRP is available, a therapeutic vaccine is needed to treat those already infected. The objective of our study was to design and test a DNA vaccine targeting HPV11 proteins. STUDY

designPreclinical scientific investigation.

methodsA DNA vaccine encoding the HPV11 E6 and E7 genes linked to calreticulin (CRT) was generated. Immunologic response to the HPV11 CRT/E6E7 vaccine was measured by vaccinating C57BL/6 mice via electroporation and measuring CD8 + T cell responses from harvested splenocytes. A tumor cell line containing HPV11-E6E7 was created, and the ability of novel DNA vaccine to control tumor growth was measured in vivo.

resultsOur vaccine generated a significant and specific CD8 + T-cell response against the HPV11-E6aa41-70 peptide. The CD8 + T-cell responses did not recognize E7 epitopes, indicating E6 immunodominance. CD8 + responses were augmented in the CRT-linked vaccine compared to a control non-CRT vaccine. The HPV11 CRT/E6E7 vaccine was used to treat mice inoculated with a HPV11 E6E7 expressing tumor cell line after temporary CD3 depletion to facilitate tumor growth. Vaccinated mice had a significantly lower tumor growth rate (P = .029) and smaller tumor volumes compared to control mice, indicating an augmented immunologic response in vaccinated mice.

conclusionsA DNA vaccine targeting HPV11 E6E7 generates a specific HPV11 CD-8 + T-cell response capable of reducing the growth of HPV11-expressing tumors. DNA vaccines are a promising immunologic strategy for treating RRP. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: NA. Laryngoscope, 127:2713-2720, 2017.
