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

Current seasonal influenza vaccines offer strain-specific protection and, thus, are less effective against mismatched strains. A broadly protective influenza vaccine is desirable to provide comprehensive protection against a wide range of influenza viruses for seasonal and pandemic influenza preparedness. Here, we evaluated the vaccine candidates based on bovine adenoviral (BAd) vectors expressing nucleoprotein (NP) of influenza A (BAd-C5-NP/A) and B (BAd-C5-NP/B) viruses linked to the autophagy-inducing peptide C5 (AIP-C5 or C5) to develop a predominantly T-cell-based vaccine. Robust cellular immune responses and humoral responses were elicited in mice with a single intranasal inoculation. Mice immunized with the BAd Bivalent (BAd-C5-NP/A + BAd-C5-NP/B) vaccine formulation exhibited protective immunity, providing protection against a broad panel of homosubtypic and heterosubtypic influenza A and B viruses, as evidenced by the absence of morbidity and mortality, along with significant reductions in lung viral titers. Protective immunity against seasonal influenza viruses was observed in ferrets following the BAd Bivalent vaccine immunization. These findings support further investigation of the potential of a unique Ad vaccine platform for mucosal immunization expressing NP linked to AIP-C5 as a broadly protective influenza vaccine.
