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

Glycoprotein B (gB) is an essential fusion protein for the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection of both B cells and epithelial cells and is thus a promising target antigen for a prophylactic vaccine to prevent or reduce EBV-associated disease. T cell responses play key roles in the control of persistent EBV infection and in the efficacy of a vaccine. However, to date, T cell responses to gB have been characterized for only a limited number of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles. Here, we screened gB T cell epitopes in 23 healthy EBV carriers and ten patients with nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) using a peptide library spanning the entire gB sequence. We identified twelve novel epitopes in the context of seven new HLA restrictions that are common in Asian populations. Two epitopes, gB
