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

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) public health crisis has reached critical mass, but interdisciplinary research efforts have provided the global community with the first effective medical intervention to fight the pandemic-COVID-19 vaccines. Two of the vaccines approved for use in the United States and Europe deliver nucleic acid in the form of mRNA, the success of which would not be possible without biomaterials. Lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-based mRNA vaccines, discussed in this perspective, protect nucleic acids from degradation and deliver cargo directly to the intracellular compartment of cells where it is translated into the antigenic severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein that triggers protective immune responses. Despite success of LNP-based mRNA vaccines thus far, the pandemic has highlighted the need for emerging technologies that enable rapid development and increased accessibility to vaccination. Microneedle arrays, also discussed in this study, provide features that could lower barriers to vaccine access in resource-poor regions. The ability to exchange antigens within arrays could also facilitate swift vaccine deployment as public health needs evolve (e.g., in response to SARS-CoV-2 variants or entirely new pathogens). Therefore, the COVID-19 pandemic has spotlighted the readiness and value of biomaterials for the prevention and management of disease outbreaks.
