A Decade of Fighting Invasive Meningococcal Disease: A Narrative Review of Clinical and Real-World Experience with the MenACWY-CRM Conjugate Vaccine.

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
The quadrivalent A, C, W and Y meningococcal vaccine conjugated to nontoxic mutant of diphtheria toxin (MenACWY-CRM) has been licensed since 2010 for the prevention of invasive meningococcal disease (IMD), an uncommon but life-threatening condition. Here, we summarize the experience accrued with MenACWY-CRM during the first decade since its licensure, by providing an overview of clinical trials investigating the safety, immunogenicity and co-administration of MenACWY-CRM with other vaccines as well as presenting real-world evidence regarding the impact of MenACWY-CRM vaccination on carriage and IMD incidence. MenACWY-CRM has demonstrated an acceptable clinical safety profile across a wide range of age groups; no safety concerns have been reported in special populations, such as immunocompromised infants and toddlers, or pregnant women. MenACWY-CRM has also been proven to be immunogenic in various age groups and geographic settings, and a booster dose has been shown to elicit strong anamnestic responses in all studied populations, irrespective of the vaccine used for priming. With no clinically relevant vaccine interactions reported, MenACWY-CRM is being conveniently integrated into existing vaccination programs for various age and risk groups; this possibility of co-administration helps improving vaccine coverage and streamlining the healthcare process of fighting preventable infectious diseases. Vaccination of adolescents and adults has been proven to reduce nasopharyngeal carriage for serogroups C, W and Y, which is an important element in reducing transmission. Real-world evidence indicates that MenACWY-CRM can reduce IMD incidence even in high-exposure groups. When combined with vaccines against serogroup B meningococci, MenACWY-CRM can offer protection against five of the most common serogroups responsible for IMD, which is an important advantage in the continuously evolving landscape of meningococcal serogroup epidemiology.
