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

Vaccine effectiveness is mainly determined by the mechanism mediating protection, emphasizing the importance of unraveling the protective mechanism for novel pneumococcal vaccine development. We previously demonstrated that the regulatory T cell (Treg) immune response has a protective effect against pneumococcal infection elicited by the live-attenuated pneumococcal vaccine SPY1. However, the mechanism underlying this protective effect remains unclear. In this study, a short synthetic peptide (P17) was used to downregulate Tregs during immunization and subsequent challenges in a mouse model. In immunized mice, increase in immune cytokines (IL-12p70, IL-4, IL-5, and IL-17A) induced by SPY1 were further upregulated by P17 treatment, whereas the decrease in the infection-associated inflammatory cytokine TNF-α by SPY1 was reversed. P17 also inhibited the increase in the immunosuppressive cytokine IL-10 and inflammatory mediator IL-6 in immunized mice. More severe pulmonary injuries and more dramatic inflammatory responses with worse survival in P17-treated immunized mice indicated the indispensable role of the Treg immune response in protection against pneumococcal infection by maintaining a balance among acquired immune responses stimulated by SPY1. Further studies revealed that the significant elevation of active transforming growth factor β (TGF-β)1 by SPY1 vaccination activated FOXP3, leading to increased frequencies of CD4
