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

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the major infectious agent of concern for cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Therefore, it is necessary to develop appropriate strategies for preventing colonization by this bacterium and/or neutralizing virulence factors. In this study, we formulated the encapsulation of exotoxin A into PLGA nanoparticles. The biological activities of the nanovaccine candidate were also characterized. Based on the results, ETA-PLGA can act as a suitable immunogen to stimulate the humoral and cellular immune response. The antibodies raised against ETA-PLGA significantly decreased bacterial titer in the spleens of the immunized mice after challenge with PAO1 strain, compared to the control groups. The encapsulation of PLGA into ETA led to a significantly higher production of INF-γ, TNF-α, IL-4, and IL-17A cytokine responses compared to the ETA group. ETA-PLGA enhanced IgG responses in immunized mice compared to ETA antigen. We concluded that encapsulation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa ETA to PLGA nanoparticles can increase its functional activity by decreasing the bacterial dissemination.
