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

Replication-deficient viral vector systems hold promise for CD8 T cell-based vaccination, but the molecular mechanisms accounting for platform-specific differences in immunogenicity remain ill-defined. When comparing prototypic single-cycle vaccine delivery platforms, we found that lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (rLCMV)-based vectors, which are non-cytolytic, elicited more durable and effector-memory-differentiated CD8 T cell responses than vectors based on cytolytic vesicular stomatitis virus (rVSV). Hence, we re-engineered rVSV to be non-cytolytic (rVSVMq). This vector induced more durable and effector-differentiated CD8 T cell memory than the parental rVSV, and it afforded superior protection against
