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

Introduction: The classical swine fever virus (CSFV) causes significant economic losses in the livestock industry. While the existing E2 marker vaccine offers protection against infections, it is characterized by delayed immunity and reduced effectiveness over time. Optimizing the existing vaccine is crucial to better control CSFV outbreaks worldwide. This study aimed to improve the existing E2 marker vaccine for CSFV by integrating NS3 T lymphocyte-inducing epitopes into the conserved E2 protein sequence and using mRNA technology for vaccine delivery. Methods: The design and evaluation of the vaccine were carried out exclusively through Results: Twenty epitopes with high binding affinity to major histocompatibility complexes (MHCs) were identified from the CSFV NS3 protein. The vaccine construct with swine CD154 adjuvant demonstrated high antigenicity, making it the optimal choice for the final vaccine design. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations confirmed the adjuvant's strong affinity and stable interaction with its canonical receptor, swine CD40. Moreover, the final vaccine design exhibited higher populations of lymphocytes and antibodies compared to the components of the commercialized E2 marker vaccine in immune simulation. The final mRNA vaccine sequence exhibited a higher MFE and CAI than the two licensed mRNA vaccine controls. Conclusion: The mRNA vaccine designed in this study serves as a potential CSFV vaccine candidate.
