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

Assays measuring neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) against SARS-CoV-2 are used to evaluate serological responses after SARS-CoV-2 infection and the potency of therapeutic antibodies and preventive vaccines. It is therefore imperative that neutralization assays be sensitive, specific, quantitative, and scalable for high throughput. Pseudoviruses are excellent surrogates for highly pathogenic viruses such as SARS-CoV-2 because they can be safely used to measure nAbs in a biosafety level-2 laboratory. In addition, pseudoviruses allow for easy introduction of mutations to study the effect of amino acid changes in the spike protein. In this chapter, we describe a recently optimized assay for measuring neutralizing antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 that uses a HIV-based lentiviral vector pseudotyped with the spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 to infect 293T cells stably expressing ACE2 and TMPRSS2.
