Serum bactericidal activity against circulating and reference strains of meningococcal serogroup B in the United States: A review of the strain coverage of meningococcal serogroup B (MenB) vaccines in adolescents and young adults.

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.
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
Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) is rare but associated with high morbidity and mortality. In the United States, the most vulnerable age groups are infants and adolescents/young adults, and the most common type of IMD is caused by serogroup B (MenB). MenB is preventable among adolescents and young adults with the use of two licensed vaccines, MenB-FHbp (Trumenba®, bivalent rLP2086; Pfizer Inc, Collegeville, PA) and MenB-4C (Bexsero®; GSK Vaccines, Srl, Italy). Because the effectiveness of MenB vaccination is dependent on broad vaccine coverage across circulating disease-causing strains, we reviewed the available clinical and real-world evidence regarding breadth of coverage of the two licensed vaccines in adolescents and young adults in the United States. Both vaccines protect against various MenB strains. More controlled data regarding breadth of coverage across MenB strains are available for MenB-FHbp compared with MenB-4C, whereas more observational data regarding US outbreak strain susceptibility are available for MenB-4C.
