Immune Responses to Varicella-Zoster Virus Vaccines.
Article in Current topics in microbiology and immunology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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 live attenuated varicella vaccine is intended to mimic the tempo and nature of the humoral and cell-mediated immune responses to varicella infection. To date, two doses of varicella vaccine administered in childhood have been very effective in generating varicella-zoster virus (VZV) immune responses that prevent natural infection for at least several decades. After primary infection, the infecting VZV establishes latency in sensory and cranial nerve ganglia with the potential to reactivate and cause herpes zoster. Although, the immune responses developed during varicella are important for preventing herpes zoster they wane with increasing age (immune senescence) or with the advent of immune suppression. Protection can be restored by increasing cell-mediated immune responses with two doses of an adjuvanted recombinant VZV glycoprotein E vaccine that stimulates both VZV-and gE-specific immunity. This vaccine provides ~85-90% protection against herpes zoster for 7-8 years (to date).
