Mucosal Vaccine Development: From Adjuvant Design to Next-Generation Delivery Strategies.
Review in Biomedicines, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Most infectious pathogens enter the host through mucosal surfaces, yet conventional injectable vaccines primarily induce systemic immunity without eliciting robust secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) responses at mucosal sites. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted this limitation, as intramuscular mRNA vaccines failed to establish durable mucosal immunity in the upper respiratory tract. This review covers recent progress in mucosal vaccine development. We first discuss the organization of the mucosal immune system, focusing on SIgA induction, tissue-resident memory T (TRM) cells, and resident memory B (BRM) cells. We then examine mucosal adjuvants, from cholera toxin and heat-labile enterotoxin derivatives to stimulator of interferon gene (STING) agonists and a strategy to enhance alum adjuvanticity through neutrophil elastase inhibition. Delivery routes including intranasal, oral, and sublingual administration are reviewed alongside viral vectors, nanoparticles, mRNA-lipid nanoparticles, virus-like particles, and engineered bacterial platforms. The roles of innate immune cells, T helper cell subsets, and the microbiota in shaping vaccine responses are discussed. Finally, we survey licensed mucosal vaccines and the COVID-19 mucosal vaccine pipeline, analyze persistent barriers to clinical translation including the absence of validated mucosal correlates of protection, and outline future directions for thermostable formulations and systems biology-driven vaccine design.
