Quantitative RT-PCR Assays for Quantification of Undesirable Mutants in the Novel Type 2 Oral Poliovirus Vaccine.
Article in Vaccines, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Emergence of mutations is an inherent property of RNA viruses with several implications for their replication, pathogenesis, and evolutionary adaptation. Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV), developed by Albert Sabin, is composed of live attenuated polioviruses of three serotypes that can revert to neurovirulence during replication in cell culture and in vaccine recipients. Recently, a new modified variant of Sabin 2 virus was developed by introducing changes in its genome, making it more genetically stable to prevent the reversion. The new strain was used to manufacture novel OPV2 (nOPV2), which was approved by the World Health Organization for emergency use to stop outbreaks caused by circulating vaccine-derived poliovirus (cVDPV2). Manufacture of this improved vaccine requires close attention to the genetic heterogenicity to ensure that the levels of the undesirable mutations are limited. Preliminary studies using whole-genome Illumina sequencing (NGS) identified several genomic sites where mutations tend to occur with regularity. They include VP1-I
