Active and Passive Immunization of Syrian Hamsters with An Attenuated SARS-CoV-2 Protects against New Variants of Concern.
Article in Research square, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Detection of secretory antibodies in the airway is highly desirable when evaluating mucosal protection by a vaccine against a respiratory virus like the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). We show that a single intranasal delivery of an attenuated SARS-CoV-2 (Nsp1-K164A/H165A) induced both mucosal and systemic IgA and IgG in Syrian hamsters. Interestingly, either active or passive immunization of hamsters with Nsp1-K164A/H165A offered protection against heterologous challenge with variants of concern (VOCs) including Delta, Omicron BA.1, and Omicron BA.2.12.1. Among challenged animals, Nsp1-K164A/H165A vaccination specifically reduced viral loads in the respiratory tract and suppressed infection-induced macrophage accumulation and MX1 upregulation in the lung. The absence of variant-specific mucosal and systemic antibodies was associated with breakthrough infections, particularly of the nasal cavity following challenges with Omicron isolates. Together, our study demonstrates that an attenuated nasal vaccine may be developed to boost mucosal immunity against future SARS-CoV-2 VOCs.
