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

As the world continues to confront severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is also causing severe respiratory illness in millions of infants, elderly individuals, and immunocompromised people globally. Exacerbating the situation is the fact that co-infection with multiple viruses is occurring, something which has greatly increased the clinical severity of the infections. Thus, our team developed a bivalent vaccine that delivered mRNAs encoding SARS-CoV-2 Omicron spike (S) and RSV fusion (F) proteins simultaneously, SF-LNP, which induced S and F protein-specific binding antibodies and cellular immune responses in BALB/c mice. Moreover, SF-LNP immunization effectively protected BALB/c mice from RSV infection and hamsters from SARS-CoV-2 Omicron infection. Notably, our study pointed out the antigenic competition problem of bivalent vaccines and provided a solution. Overall, our results demonstrated the potential of preventing two infectious diseases with a single vaccine and provided a paradigm for the subsequent design of multivalent vaccines.
