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

backgroundChikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-borne alphavirus that is responsible for Chikungunya fever, which is characterized by fever, rash, and debilitating polyarthralgia. Since its re-emergence in 2004, CHIKV has continued to spread to new regions and become a severe health threat to global public. Development of safe and single dose vaccines that provide durable protection is desirable to control the spread of virus. The recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vectors represent promising vaccine platform to provide prolonged protection with a single-dose immunization. In this study, we developed a rAAV capsid serotype 1 vector based CHIKV vaccine and evaluated its protection effect against CHIKV challenge. METHODOLOGY: The recombinant AAV1 encoding the full-length structural proteins of CHIKV (named as rAAV1-CHIKV-SP) was generated in vitro by transfecting the plasmids of AAV helper-free system into HEK-293T cells. The safety and immunogenicity of rAAV1-CHIKV-SP were tested in 4-week-old C57BL/6 mice. The antibody responses of the mice receiving prime-boost or single-dose immunization of the vaccine were determined by ELISA and plaque reduction neutralizing test. The immunized mice were challenged with CHIKV to evaluate the protection effect of the vaccine.

conclusionsThe rAAV1-CHIKV-SP showed remarkable safety and immunogenicity in C57BL/6 mice. A single dose intramuscular injection of rAAV1-CHIKV-SP elicited high level and long-lasting antibody responses, and conferred complete protection against a heterologous CHIKV strain challenge. These results suggest rAAV1-CHIKV-SP represents a promising vaccine candidate against different CHIKV clades with a simplified immunization strategy.
