Lipopolysaccharide Inhibits FI-RSV Vaccine-enhanced Inflammation Through Regulating Th Responses.
Article in Current medical science, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is the primary cause of respiratory disease in infants. The formalin-inactivated RSV (FI-RSV) vaccine resulted in an enhanced respiratory disease (ERD) in infants upon natural RSV infection, which is a major obstacle for development of safe and efficacious vaccines. Excessive and uncontrolled Th immune responses could be involved in the ERD. Agonists of TLRs are used as adjuvants to guide the type of immune response induced by vaccines. We evaluated the impact of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), the agonist of TLR4, on ERD as the adjuvant of FI-RSV. The results showed that LPS remarkably inhibited FI-RSV-enhanced lung inflammation, mucus production, airway inflammatory cell infiltration, and inflammatory cytokines following RSV challenge. Interestingly, LPS inhibited both Th2 and Th17 type cytokines in lungs of FI-RSV-immunized mice following RSV challenge, without an increase in the Th1 type cytokines, suggesting a controlled immune response. In contrast, Pam3Cys and Poly(I:C), the agonist of TLR1/2 or TLR3, partly inhibited FI-RSV-enhanced lung inflammation. Pam3Cys inhibited Th17 type cytokine IL-17, but promoted both Th1 and Th2 type cytokines. Poly(I:C) inhibited Th2 and Th17 type cytokines, but promoted Th1 type cytokines. In addition, LPS promoted IgG and IgG2a antibody production, which might provide protection from RSV challenge. These results suggest that LPS inhibits ERD without impairment in antibody production and protection, and the mechanism appears to be related with regulation of Th responses induced by FI-RSV.
