Harnessing the Potential of mRNA Vaccines Against Infectious Diseases.
Review in Microbial biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
mRNA vaccines have emerged as promising alternatives to conventional vaccines because of their flexible design, high immunogenicity, favourable safety profile, efficacy and potential for rapid clinical development. The accelerated development of mRNA vaccines during the COVID-19 pandemic has revolutionised the field of vaccinology, highlighting their potential for combating emerging infectious diseases. The mRNA platforms can induce robust humoral as well as CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell-mediated immunity, offering broader protection than subunit protein vaccines. Consequently, they have been extensively studied against a wide range of viral, bacterial and parasitic infections, although the development of mRNA vaccines against bacterial and parasitic infections has lagged behind those targeting viruses. This review highlights recent studies on mRNA vaccine development and applications against a wide range of infectious diseases including non-COVID viral infections, bacterial pathogens such as Mycobacteria or Pseudomonas aeruginosa and parasitic infections, including malaria. Moreover, it discusses key optimisation strategies and highlights candidates that have progressed to clinical trials, and the current challenges in enhancing immunogenicity and improving delivery systems.
