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

backgroundPeptide vaccines offer a direct way to initiate an immunogenic response to a defined antigen epitope. However, peptide vaccines are unstable

methodsWe re-examined this set of α/β SIINFEKL antigens. We tested the susceptibility to proteolysis in mouse serum and their ability to activate OVA-antigen-specific CD8 T cells

resultsThe α/β antigens were comparable to the native antigen in their susceptibility to proteolysis in serum. Each α/β antigen was capable of activating antigen-specific CD8 T cells

conclusionsWe conclude that even though α/β analogues of the SIINFEKL antigen can elicit a T cell-based response, this class of backbone-modified peptides is not promising from the perspective of antitumor vaccine development.
