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

introductionBecause booster doses of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) may be given at a similar time to yellow fever vaccine (YF), it is important to assess the immune response to YF when co-administered with PCV. This has been investigated during a reduced-dose PCV trial in The Gambia.

methodsIn this phase 4, parallel-group, cluster-randomized trial, healthy infants aged 0-10 weeks were randomly allocated to receive either a two-dose schedule of PCV13 with a booster dose co-administered with YF vaccine at age 9 months (1 + 1 co-administration) or YF vaccine administered separately at age 10 months (1 + 1 separate) or the standard three early doses of PCV13 with YF vaccine at age 9 months (3 + 0 separate). Blood samples were collected 28-35 days post-vaccination and YF neutralizing antibody (NA) titres were measured. Proportions with seroprotective YF NA titres ≥ 1:8 were calculated with 95 % confidence intervals (CI). Non-inferiority was demonstrated if the lower limit of the CI for the difference in proportions between the co-administration and separate groups was greater than - 10 %.

resultsForty-eight, 66, and 98 participants enrolled in 3 + 0 separate, 1 + 1 co-administration, and 1 + 1 separate groups respectively had NA results. Per protocol analysis of the 3 + 0 separate, 1 + 1 co-administration, 1 + 1 separate, and the combined 1 + 1 separate and 3 + 0 separate groups found that 81 %, 85 %, 92 %, and 88 % of participants respectively had YF NA titres ≥1:8. Results were similar with analysis by intention-to-treat. The difference in proportions comparing 1 + 1 co-administration and 1 + 1 separate groups was -7 % (95 % CI, -18 % to 3 %). The difference between 1 + 1 co-administration and 3 + 0 separate groups was 4 % (95 % CI, -10 % to 15 %). There was no statistical difference in the YF seroresponse when the YF vaccine was co-administered with PCV or administered separately.

conclusionsNo evidence was found of the non-inferiority of the seroresponse to YF vaccine when co-administered with PCV13. The levels of YF NA attaining seroprotection (NT ≥1:8) were high in all groups. PCV13 co-administered with YF vaccine at 9 months does not affect seroresponse to YF vaccine. http://www.isrctn.org/ - ISRCTN72821613.
