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

Dendritic cells connect innate and adaptive immune responses. This is a particularly important immune checkpoint in the case of emerging infections against which most of the population does not have preexisting antibody immunity. In this study, we sought to test whether antibody-based delivery of Ebola virus (EBOV) antigens to dendritic cells could be used as a vaccination strategy against Ebola virus disease. Our approach was to use antibodies targeting the endocytic receptor DEC-205 present in murine and human dendritic cells, to deliver the EBOV nucleoprotein or the model antigen ovalbumin (OVA). Our findings indicate that DEC-205 targeting stimulated antigen-specific T-cell responses in mice, which resulted in protection from EBOV or recombinant EBOV-OVA challenge. An added value of this strategy was the generation of resident memory T cells. We propose that dendritic cell targeting could be used to improve T-cell responses against filoviruses, a strategy that may complement current vaccination strategies.
