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

New therapies and vaccines based on nucleic acids combined with an efficient nanoparticle delivery vehicle have a broad applicability for different disease indications. An alternative delivery technology for the successfully applied lipid nanoparticles in mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines are nanoparticles composed of biodegradable poly(amido)amine-based polymers with mRNA payload. To show that these polymeric nanoparticles can efficiently deliver influenza hemagglutinin mRNA to target tissues and elicit protective immune responses, a relevant ferret influenza challenge model was used. In this model, our nanoparticle-based vaccine elicited strong humoral and cellular immune responses in the absence of local and systemic reactogenicity. Upon virus challenge, vaccinated animals exhibited reduced clinical signs and virus load relative to unvaccinated control animals. Based on these findings, further investigation of the polymeric nanoparticles in the context of prophylactic vaccination is warranted. Future studies will focus on optimizing the payload, the nanoparticle stability, the efficacy in the context of pre-existing immunity, and the applicability of the technology to prevent other infectious diseases.
