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

Human challenge studies are instrumental for testing cholera vaccines, but these studies use outdated strains and require inpatient facilities. Here, we created next-generation isogenic Ogawa and Inaba O1 V. cholerae challenge strains (ZChol strains) derived from a contemporary Zambian clinical isolate representative of current dominant pandemic V. cholerae. Since the primary mechanism of immune protection against cholera is thought to be antibody responses that limit V. cholerae colonization and not the diarrheagenic actions of cholera toxin, these strains were rendered nontoxigenic. In infant mice, the ZChol strains did not cause diarrhea and proved to accurately gauge reduction in intestinal colonization mediated by effective vaccination. ZChol strains were also valuable as targets for measuring vibriocidal antibody responses. Using barcoded ZChol strains, we discovered that vaccination and passive immunity in the infant mouse model tightens the infection bottleneck without restricting pathogen expansion during intestinal infection. Collectively, our findings suggest that ZChol strains have the potential to enhance the safety, relevance, and scope of future cholera vaccine challenge studies and be valuable reagents for studies of immunity to cholera.
