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

Acellular pertussis vaccines are used in many countries. Since the quantity of antibodies after vaccination wanes quickly, to study functional antibody properties is important for evaluating long-lasting protection. Additionally, substantial variation in the quantity and quality of antibodies exists after vaccination in different age groups. The avidity of antibodies to pertussis toxin (PT) after Tdap3-IPV booster vaccination was studied in children, adolescents, young adults, and older adults. Serum samples (
