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

backgroundRabies is a preventable zoonotic disease caused by the rabies virus (RABV) with a high mortality rate. Most vaccines on the market or under development have issues, such as low single-dose neutralization titer, complex processes, and high costs. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the successful development of mRNA vaccines opened up a new avenue for preventive vaccines. As a new technology, mRNA has higher scalability.

methodsIn this study, we designed an mRNA encoding the RV-G protein, encapsulated by our own muscle-targeting lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), and evaluated the expression of the RV-G protein in vitro, its immunogenicity, and its protection against virus infection in vivo.

resultsThe results show that RV-G mRNA was significantly expressed in vitro. High Virus-IgG binding titers and virus-neutralizing antibody titers (VNT) were induced by immunization with RV-G mRNA-LNP. Additionally, our results showed that the RV-G mRNA vaccine is better than commercially available vaccines in mice.

conclusionsOur research highlights the potential of the mRNA-LNP platform in developing next-generation rabies vaccines.
