Pneumococcal IgG Antibody Responses to 23vPPV in Healthy Controls Using an Automated ELISA.

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
Measurement of pre- and post-pneumococcal antibody levels after immunization with the 23-valent capsular polysaccharide pneumococcal vaccine (23vPPV) is indicative of a T-independent antibody response. The World Health Organisation ELISA is considered gold standard yet is labor-intensive and technically difficult to perform. Interpretation criteria defining an adequate response to 23vPPV remain controversial. The diagnostic Immunology Laboratory at The Royal Children's Hospital, Melbourne (RCH), performs an in-house multi-serotype automated ELISA. The primary objective of this study was to verify RCH interpretation criteria for the laboratory's automated ELISA. Forty pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV)-naïve healthy adults aged 18 to 25 years and 22 PCV-primed healthy children aged 2 to 5 years were immunized with 23vPPV. A serum sample was collected immediately prior and 28 to 42 (± 7) days post immunization. Samples were analyzed on the Tecan Freedom Evo 200 ELISA with adequate response defined as post-immunization antibody level of 1.3 µg/mL or fourfold rise from baseline in ≥ 10/15 serotypes in adult participants and ≥ 4/8 serotypes in pediatric participants. Thirty-nine (97.5%) adults and 22 (100%) children achieved an adequate response to 23vPPV. In PCV-naïve adults, serotypes contained within the conjugate vaccines were less immunogenic, with 12 (30%) adults not achieving an adequate antibody response when only PCV serotypes were used for interpretation. Our diagnostic laboratory has verified the interpretation criteria used for an automated multi-serotype pneumococcal ELISA method.
