Respiratory Syncytial Virus Vaccination in the Adult Pulmonary Patient.
Review in Chest, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
topic importanceSince its discovery in 1957, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) has been widely recognized as a common and deadly pathogen. Although early studies focused on the impact of RSV on the health of children, more recent data show that RSV imposes a significant burden on individuals aged ≥ 70 years. RSV also substantially harms the health of individuals with cardiopulmonary diseases. REVIEW
findingsEarly efforts to develop an RSV vaccine were hampered by toxicity due to antibody-enhanced viral pneumonia and a lack of efficacy in vaccines that targeted the postfusion configuration of the F fusion protein, which is crucial to the pathogenesis of RSV-mediated injury. A newer wave of vaccines has targeted a stabilized prefusion F protein, generating effective neutralizing antibodies and reducing the burden of mild and severe RSV lower respiratory tract injury. This review focuses on the burden of RSV in patients with pulmonary diseases, highlights the tumultuous path from the early days of RSV vaccine development to the modern era, and offers insights into key gaps in knowledge that must be addressed to adequately protect the vulnerable population of patients with severe pulmonary diseases. SUMMARY: RSV vaccination with bivalent RSVPreF or RSVPreF3OA, which target the stabilized prefusion F protein, can be broadly recommended to adults aged ≥ 60 years with pulmonary diseases. However, more data are needed to understand how these vaccinations affect key clinical outcomes in individuals with pulmonary disease.
