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

Purpose: Rabies is a deadly zoonotic disease affecting many mammals, including humans. Oral rabies bait vaccines induce an immune response without direct inoculation, and are crucial for controlling rabies in wildlife. This study evaluated the safety and immunogenicity of a new rabies bait vaccine containing a recombinant rabies virus expressing green fluorescent protein (ERAGS-GFP) in wild raccoon dogs. Materials and Methods: To confirm the safety of the ERAGS-GFP vaccine, reversion to virulence was evaluated in 1-day-old suckling mice. The uptake, minimum effective dose, and immunogenicity of the bait vaccine were assessed in raccoon dogs, as was the persistence of post-vaccine immunity. Serum rabies virus neutralizing antibody (VNA) titers were measured using fluorescent antibody virus neutralization. Results: No adverse effects were noted in mice, guinea pigs, dogs, or raccoon dogs administered the ERAGS-GFP vaccine orally during the test period. The glycoprotein gene of the ERAGS-GFP strain remained unchanged after five reverse passages in 1-day-old mice. Uptake of the bait vaccine was 75.8% in raccoon dogs. The minimum effective dose was at least 10 Conclusion: The ERAGS-GFP bait vaccine showed high uptake and strong immunogenicity in raccoon dogs, and protective antibody levels were maintained for at least 4 months. These results indicate the vaccine's potential for effective rabies control in wildlife, which can reduce the risk of transmission to humans and domestic animals.
