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

Thermostability and decreased component costs are desirable features for adjuvanted, recombinant vaccines. We previously showed that a model malaria transmission-blocking vaccine candidate antigen, Pfs25, can be rendered more immunogenic when mixed with liposomes containing cobalt porphyrin-phospholipid (CoPoP) and a synthetic monophosphoryl lipid A (MPLA) variant. CoPoP can induce stable particle formation of recombinant antigens based on interaction with their polyhistidine tag. In the present work, different synthetic MPLA variants and concentrations were assessed in CoPoP liposomes. Long-term biophysical stability and immunogenicity were not adversely impacted by a 60% reduction in MPLA content. When admixed with Pfs25, the adjuvant formulations effectively induced functional antibodies in immunized mice and rabbits. Lyophilized, antigen-bound liposomes were formed using sucrose and trehalose cryoprotectants, which improved vaccine reconstitution for a variety of model antigens. Compared to liquid storage, the lyophilized Pfs25 and CoPoP liposomes exhibited thermostability with respect to size, biochemical integrity, binding capacity, protein folding and immunogenicity. Following 6 weeks of storage at 60 °C, the most extended storage period assessed, the lyophilized formulation induced functional antibodies in mice with immunization.
