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

backgroundGlypican-3 (GPC3) is one of the key tissue markers that could discriminate malignant precancerous lesions from benign hepatic lesions in cirrhotic patients. We aimed to develop a GPC3 cancer vaccine to induce specific T cells to intervene in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development.

methodsSynthesizing mannosylated liposomes (LPMan) as vaccine delivery system, incorporating one Toll-like receptor (TLR)-7/8 agonist CL097 as adjuvant, we prepared a GPC3 nanovaccine, LPMan-GPC3/CL097. We injected 25 mg/kg diethylnitrosamine intraperitoneally to induce autochthonous HCC in HBV-transgenic mice, which persistently express hepatitis B surface antigen in hepatocytes. Starting from week 8 after diethylnitrosamine injection when malignant hepatocytes generated, we immunized the mice subcutaneously every 2 weeks 4 times with LPMan-GPC3/CL097 containing 5 µg of GPC3 plus 5 µg of CL097.

resultsThe vaccine efficiently targeted draining lymph nodes where naïve T cells reside and enhanced the expression of molecules involved in antigen presentation in migratory dendritic cells (DCs). Antigen was professionally processed in endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi system of DCs, subsequently priming both CD4
