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

Several epidemiological studies demonstrated that coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4) causes viral pancreatitis and can ultimately result in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D). Prevention of CVB4 infection is therefore highly desirable. There is currently no vaccine or antiviral therapeutic reagent in clinical use. VLP are structurally similar to native virus particles and therefore are far better immunogens than any other subunit vaccines. Many studies have shown the potential of capsid protein VP1 on providing protective effects from different viral strains. In this study, we contributed towards the development of a CVB4 VLP-based vaccine from the total protein VP1 of the diabetogenic CVB4E2 strain and assessed whether it could induce a protective immunity against both the wild-type CVB4JBV and the diabetogenic CVB4E2 strains in mice model. Serum samples, taken from mice immunized with VLP, were assayed in vitro for their anti-CVB4 neutralizing activity and in vivo for protective activity. We show that VLP vaccine generates robust immune responses that protect mice from lethal challenges. Results demonstrate that CVB4 VP1 capsid proteins expressed in insect cells have the intrinsic capacity to assemble into non-infectious VLP, which afforded protection from CVB4 infection to mice when used as a vaccine.
