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

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), is one of the leading infectious causes of adult mortality worldwide. The Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine is currently the only approved vaccine for TB prevention, but its protective efficacy against adult pulmonary TB is limited, and it lacks effective protection against primary or latent TB infection. There is an urgent need to develop more effective preventive TB vaccines. Currently, preventive TB vaccines under clinical investigation globally include live attenuated vaccines, recombinant subunit vaccines, viral vector vaccines, and mRNA vaccines. This article reviews and summarizes recent progress in the clinical development of preventive TB vaccines, analyzing and comparing their safety, immunogenicity, and protective efficacy. It also explores novel strategies for next-generation TB vaccine development, aiming to provide insights and directions for future research.
