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

An estimated 400 million people in the world are infected with any of the four types of dengue virus (DENV) annually. The only licensed dengue vaccine cannot effectively prevent infection with all of the four DENVs, especially in those immunologically naïve at baseline. In this study, we explored a mosaic vaccine approach, which utilizes an artificial recombinant sequence for each serotype to achieve maximum coverage of variant epitopes in the four DENVs. We determined the immunogenicity and cross-reactivity of DNA plasmids encoding individual mosaic sequences or the natural sequences in mice. We show that the mosaic vaccines, particularly those targeting DENV serotype 1 and 2, improved vaccine immunogenicity by increasing the percentage of antigen-specific IFNγ- or TNFα-secreting CD4 and CD8 T cells, and titers of neutralizing antibodies. The mosaic vaccine diversified and broadened anti-dengue T cell responses and cross-reactive neutralizing antibodies against all four serotypes. The mosaic vaccines also induced higher level of antigen-specific B cell responses. These results suggest that mosaic vaccines comprising of DENV serotype 1 and 2 variant epitopes could stimulate strong and broad immune responses against all four serotypes.
