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

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is an important zoonotic pathogen, which causes central nervous system symptoms in humans and reproductive disorders in swine. It has led to severe impacts on human health and the swine industry; however, there is no medicine available for treating yet. Therefore, vaccination is the best preventive measure for this disease. In the study, a modified mRNA vaccine expressing the prM and E proteins of the JEV P3 strain was manufactured, and a mouse model was used to assess its efficacy. The mRNA encoding prM and E proteins showed a high level of protein expression in vitro and were encapsulated into a lipid nanoparticle (LNP). Effective neutralizing antibodies and CD8+ T-lymphocytes-mediated immune responses were observed in vaccinated mice. Furthermore, the modified mRNA can protect mice from a lethal challenge with JEV and reduce neuroinflammation caused by JEV. This study provides a new option for the JE vaccine and lays a foundation for the subsequent development of a more efficient and safer JEV mRNA vaccine.
