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

Induction of immunoglobulin (Ig) A in the mucosa of the upper respiratory tract and the nasal cavity protects against influenza virus infection. Cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) are used as mucosal adjuvants to enhance the immunogenicity of intranasal influenza hemagglutinin (HA) vaccines. The adjuvant activity of 2'3' cyclic guanosine monophosphate-adenosine monophosphate (cGAMP) on Ig production was investigated in nasal-associated lymphoid tissue (NALT), serum of wild-type C57BL/6J, and stimulator of interferon genes (STING)-deficient mice, which do not recognize cGAMP. Mice were vaccinated intranasally with a HA vaccine with or without the cGAMP adjuvant. IgA and IgG production, T-cell responses, germinal center formation, and cytokine expression in NALT were assayed. cGAMP enhanced IgA and IgG production, and promoted T-cell responses. Intranasal administration of cGAMP activated both NALT and systemic immune cells, induced a favorable cytokine environment for IgA induction, and promoted germinal center formation. The cGAMP effect was STING-dependent. Taken together, cGAMP as an HA vaccine adjuvant promoted a STING-dependent NALT environment suitable for the enhancement of IgA production.
