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

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is contracted via aerosol infection, typically affecting the lungs. Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is the only licensed vaccine and has variable efficacy in protecting against pulmonary TB. Additionally, chemotherapy is associated with low compliance contributing to development of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Mtb. Thus, there is an urgent need for the design of more effective vaccines against TB. Experimental vaccines delivered through the mucosal route induce robust T helper type 17 (Th17)/ Interleukin (IL) -17 responses and provide superior protection against Mtb infection. Thus, the development of safe mucosal adjuvants for human use is critical. In this study, we demonstrate that nanoemulsion (NE)-based adjuvants when delivered intranasally along with Mtb specific immunodominant antigens (NE-TB vaccine) induce potent mucosal IL-17T-cell responses. Additionally, the NE-TB vaccine confers significant protection against Mtb infection, and when delivered along with BCG, is associated with decreased disease severity. These findings strongly support the development of a NE-TB vaccine as a novel, safe and effective, first-of-kind IL-17 inducing mucosal vaccine for potential use in humans.
