Therapeutic Effect of C-Vx Substance in K18-hACE2 Transgenic Mice Infected with SARS-CoV-2.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. 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
C-Vx is a bioprotective product designed to boost the immune system. This study aimed to determine the antiviral activity of the C-Vx substance against SARS-CoV-2 infection. The effect of C-Vx in K18-hACE2 transgenic mice against the SARS-CoV-2 virus was investigated. For this purpose, ten mice were separated into experimental and control groups. Animals were infected with SARS-CoV-2 prior to the administration of the product to determine whether the product has a therapeutic effect similar to that demonstrated in previous human studies, at a histopathological and molecular level. C-Vx-treated mice survived the challenge, whereas the control mice became ill and/or died. The cytokine-chemokine panel with blood samples taken during the critical days of the disease revealed detailed immune responses. Our findings showed that C-Vx presented 90% protection against the SARS-CoV-2 virus-infected mice. The challenge results and cytokine responses of K18-hACE2 transgenic mice matched previous scientific studies, demonstrating the C-Vx's antiviral efficiency.
