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

Human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of severe respiratory disease in (premature) newborns and causes respiratory illness in the elderly. Different monoclonal antibody (MAb) and vaccine candidates are in development worldwide and will hopefully become available within the near future. To implement such RSV vaccines, adequate decisions about immunization schedules and the different target group(s) need to be made, for which the assessment of antibody levels against RSV is essential. To survey RSV antigen-specific antibody levels, we developed a serological multiplex immunoassay (MIA) that determines and distinguishes antibodies against the five RSV glycoproteins postfusion F, prefusion F, Ga, Gb, and N simultaneously. The standardized RSV pentaplex MIA is sensitive, highly reproducible, and specific for the five RSV proteins. The preservation of the conformational structure of the immunodominant site Ø of prefusion F after conjugation to the beads has been confirmed. Importantly, good correlation is obtained between the microneutralization test and the MIA for all five proteins, resulting in an arbitrarily chosen cutoff value of prefusion F antibody levels for seropositivity in the microneutralization assay. The wide dynamic range requiring only two serum sample dilutions makes the RSV-MIA a high-throughput assay very suitable for (large-scale) serosurveillance and vaccine clinical studies.
