Antibody-enhanced hepatitis E virus nanofiltration during the manufacture of human immunoglobulin.
Article in Transfusion, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundCirculation of hepatitis E virus (HEV) in areas where plasma is sourced for the manufacture of plasma-derived medicinal products (PDMPs) has prompted verification of HEV clearance. HEV exists as quasi lipid-enveloped (LE) and non-lipid-enveloped (NLE) forms, which might be of relevance for HEV clearance from manufacturing processes of antibody-containing PDMPs with solvent/detergent (S/D) treatment upstream of further clearance steps. STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsPresence of different HEV particles in stocks used in clearance studies was investigated, with nanofilters graded around the assumed HEV particle sizes and by gradient centrifugation. HEV removal by 35-nm nanofiltration was investigated in the presence or absence of HEV antibodies, in buffer as well as in immunoglobulin (IG) manufacturing process intermediates.
resultsHEV particles consistent with LE, NLE, and an "intermediate" (IM) phenotype, obtained after S/D treatment, were seen in different HEV stocks. In the absence of HEV antibodies, log reduction factors (LRFs) of 4.0 and 2.5 were obtained by 35-nm nanofiltration of LE and IM HEV, consistent with the larger and smaller sizes of these phenotypes. Addition of HEV antibodies enhanced IM HEV removal around 1000-fold (LRF, 5.6). Effective (LRF, >4.8 and >4.0) HEV removal was obtained for the nanofiltration processing step for IG intermediates with varying HEV antibody content.
conclusionHEV spikes used in clearance studies should be carefully selected, as differences in physicochemical properties might affect HEV clearance. Antibody-mediated enhancement of HEV nanofiltration was demonstrated in IG process intermediates even at low HEV antibody concentration, illustrating the robustness of this manufacturing step.
