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 global pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has led to efforts in developing effective vaccine approaches. Currently, approved coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines are administered through an intramuscular (I.M.) route. Here, we show that the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) glycoprotein receptor-binding domain (RBD), when displayed on immunogenic liposomes, can be intranasally (I.N.) administered, resulting in the production of antigen-specific IgA and antigen-specific cellular responses in the lungs. Following I.N. immunization, antigen-presenting cells of the lungs took up liposomes displaying the RBD. K18 human ACE2-transgenic mice that were immunized I.M or I.N with sub-microgram doses of RBD liposomes and that were then challenged with SARS-CoV-2 had a reduced viral load in the early course of infection, with I.M. achieving complete viral clearance. Nevertheless, both vaccine administration routes led to full protection against lethal viral infection, demonstrating the potential for the further exploration and optimization of I.N immunization with liposome-displayed antigen vaccines.
