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

Dengue viruses (DENV) and Zika virus (ZIKV) are related mosquito-borne flaviviruses with similar disease manifestations, vector ecologies, and geographic ranges. The ability to differentiate these viruses serologically is vital due to the teratogenic nature of ZIKV and the potential confounding of preexisting cross-reactive anti-DENV antibodies. Here, we illustrate the kinetics of the IgM neutralizing antibody (NAb) response using longitudinal samples ranging from acute ZIKV infection to late convalescence from individuals with evidence of prior DENV infection. By serially depleting antibody isotypes prior to the neutralization assay, we determined that IgM contributes predominantly to ZIKV neutralization and is less cross-reactive than the IgG NAb. The IgM NAb peaked around 14 days (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 13 to 15) and had a median duration of 257 days (95% CI, 133 to 427). These results demonstrate the persistence of IgM NAb after ZIKV infection and imply its potential role in diagnosis, vaccine evaluation, serosurveillance, and research on flavivirus-host interactions.
