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

The emergence of the antigenically distinct and highly transmissible Omicron variant highlights the possibility of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) immune escape due to viral evolution. This continued evolution, along with the possible introduction of new sarbecoviruses from zoonotic reservoirs, may evade host immunity elicited by current SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. Identifying cross-reactive antibodies and defining their epitope(s) can provide templates for rational immunogen design strategies for next-generation vaccines. Here, we characterize the receptor-binding-domain-directed, cross-reactive humoral repertoire across 10 human vaccinated donors. We identify cross-reactive antibodies from diverse gene rearrangements targeting two conserved receptor-binding domain epitopes. An engineered immunogen enriches antibody responses to one of these conserved epitopes in mice with pre-existing SARS-CoV-2 immunity; elicited responses neutralize SARS-CoV-2, variants, and related sarbecoviruses. These data show how immune focusing to a conserved epitope targeted by human cross-reactive antibodies may guide pan-sarbecovirus vaccine development, providing a template for identifying such epitopes and translating to immunogen design.
