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 emergence of variants and the reports of co-infection caused by Candida auris in COVID-19 patients adds a further complication to the global pandemic situation. To date, no effective therapy is available for C. auris infections. Thus, characterization of therapeutic targets and designing effective vaccine candidates using subtractive proteomics and immune-informatics approaches is useful tool in controlling the emerging infections associated with SARS-CoV-2. In the current study, subtractive proteomics-assisted annotation of the vaccine targets was performed, which revealed seven vaccine targets. An immunoinformatic-driven approach was then employed to map protein-specific and proteome-wide immunogenic peptides (CTL, B cell, and HTL) for the design of multi-epitope vaccine candidates (MEVCs). The results demonstrated that the vaccine candidates possess strong antigenic features (>0.4 threshold score) and are classified as non-allergenic. Validation of the designed MEVCs through molecular docking, in-silico cloning, and immune simulation further demonstrated the efficacy of the vaccines by producing immune factor titers (ranging from 2500 to 16000 au/mL) i.e., IgM, IgG, IL-6, and Interferon-α. In conclusion, the current study provides a strong impetus in designing anti-fungal strategies against Candida auris.
