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

backgroundImmunity to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is short lived following infection. We determined if recently licensed RSV preF vaccines induce better immune responses than infection.

methodsSerum preF binding and neutralizing antibody to RSV A and B was measured in older adults at baseline and 30 days after RSV infection or vaccination with 2 licensed RSV preF protein vaccines.

resultsVaccination induced higher serum preF binding antibody and neutralizing responses than RSV infection (A2 RSV, 3306 vs 1254, P < .0001; B1 RSV, 5153 vs 2186, P < .0001).

conclusionsVaccination with preF protein vaccines induce better humoral immune responses than RSV infection in older adult.
