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

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is the causal pathogen of Japanese encephalitis (JE), which has become a severe public health problem and is one of the most rapidly spreading mosquito-borne diseases worldwide. Currently, there is no specific treatment for JEV. A vaccine would be an effective measure for reducing morbidity and mortality. Although the live attenuated vaccine SA14-14-2 has been approved in some countries, it is still necessary to develop safer, more effective, and less costly vaccines. In this study, a DNA vaccine candidate, pV-SA14ME, expressing the prM/E proteins of SA14-14-2 was inoculated into BALB/c mice via intramuscular electroporation, and the immunogenicity and degree of protection were evaluated. We found that administration of 50 μg pV-SA14ME via electroporation via three immunizations could induce persistent humoral and cellular immune responses and effectively protect mice against lethal JEV challenge. This study provides a basis for the subsequent promotion and use of the vaccine and lays the foundation for its further use in swine and humans.
