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

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections manifest as recurrent oral or genital mucosal lesions, meningoencephalitis, corneal blindness, and perinatal disease. Subunit vaccines have advanced into the clinic without success. None were tested preclinically in male mice. We compared a single-cycle candidate vaccine deleted in HSV-2 glycoprotein D (ΔgD-2) and subunit gD-2 or gD-1 protein vaccines in a male murine skin model. The ΔgD-2 provided complete protection against 10 times the lethal dose of HSV-1 or HSV-2 clinical isolates, and no latent virus was detected, whereas gD-1- and gD-2-adjuvanted proteins provided little or no protection. Protection correlated with Fc receptor activating but not neutralizing antibody titers.
