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

Increasing the number of CpG dinucleotides in RNA viral genomes, while preserving the original amino acid composition, leads to impaired infection which does not cause disease. Beneficially, impaired infection evokes antiviral host immune responses providing a cutting-edge vaccine approach. For example, we previously showed that CpG-enriched Zika virus variants cause attenuated infection phenotypes and protect against lethal challenge in mice. While CpG recoding is an emerging and promising vaccine approach, little is known about infection phenotypes caused by recoded viruses
