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

backgroundHuman papillomavirus (HPV) 16 infection is associated with several human malignancies. Developing therapeutic vaccines holds great potential for patients who do not benefit from standard care. Circular RNA (circRNA) is an emerging next-generation platform for cancer vaccine development owing to its superior stability and convenient manufacturing process. Herein, we report development of a synthetic circRNA encoding fused HPV16 E7/E6 antigens encapsulated with lipid nanoparticles (LNP) to treat HPV16-related solid tumors.

methodsThe immunogenicity and anti-tumor immune response of the LNP-circRNA vaccine was determined in naïve C57BL/6 mice and TC-1 tumor-bearing mice, respectively. Changes in immune cells were examined using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence assay. RNA sequencing was used to identify differentially expressed genes and changes in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of tumors treated with LNP-circRNA

resultsPrime-boost vaccination with LNP-circRNA

conclusionsThe present study results demonstrate that LNP-circRNA
