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

Klebsiella pneumoniae is the leading cause of neonatal sepsis and is increasingly difficult to treat owing to antibiotic resistance. Vaccination represents a tractable approach to combat this resistant bacterium; however, there is currently not a licensed vaccine. Surface polysaccharides, including O-antigens of lipopolysaccharide, have long been attractive candidates for vaccine inclusion. Herein we describe the generation of a bioconjugate vaccine targeting 7 predominant O-antigen subtypes in K. pneumoniae. Each bioconjugate was immunogenic in isolation, with limited cross-reactivity among subtypes. Vaccine-induced antibodies demonstrated varying degrees of binding to a wide variety of K. pneumoniae strains. Furthermore, serum from vaccinated mice induced complement-mediated killing of many of these strains. Finally, increased capsule interfered with the ability of O-antigen antibodies to bind and mediate killing of some K. pneumoniae strains. Taken together, these data indicate that this novel heptavalent O-antigen bioconjugate vaccine formulation exhibits limited efficacy against some, but not all, K. pneumoniae isolates.
