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

An effective vaccine against group A streptococcus (GAS) is highly desirable for definitive control of GAS infections. In the present study, two variants of amphiphilic chitosan nanoparticles-based GAS vaccines were developed. The vaccines were primarily composed of encapsulated KLH protein (a source of T helper cell epitopes) and lipidated M-protein derived B cell peptide epitope (lipoJ14) within the amphiphilic structure of nanoparticles. The only difference between them was one of the nanoparticles vaccines received additional surface coating with poly (I:C). The formulated vaccines exhibited nanosized particles within the range of 220-240 nm. Cellular uptake study showed that nanoparticles vaccine without additional poly (I:C) coating has greater uptake by dendritic cells and macrophages compared to nanoparticles vaccine that was functionalized with poly (I:C). Both vaccines were found to be safe in mice and showed negligible cytotoxicity against HEK293 cells. Upon immunization in mice, both nanoparticle vaccines produced high antigen-specific antibodies titres that were regulated by a balanced Th1 and Th2 response compared to physical mixture. These antibodies elicited high opsonic activity against the tested GAS strains. Overall, our data demonstrated that amphiphilic chitosan nanoparticles platform induced a potent immune response even without additional inclusion of poly (I:C).
