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.

Abstract
introductionThe phase 3 PROVENT and STORM CHASER studies evaluated AZD7442 (tixagevimab/cilgavimab) for pre-exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis of symptomatic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We report the final 15-month results of both studies.
methodsIn PROVENT, participants were randomized 2:1 to receive 300 mg AZD7442 (n = 3460) or placebo (n = 1737). In STORM CHASER, participants were enrolled within 8 days of exposure to a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-infected individual and randomized 2:1 to receive 300 mg AZD7442 (n = 749) or placebo (n = 372).
resultsIn PROVENT, the relative risk reduction (RRR) in symptomatic COVID-19 for AZD7442 versus placebo was 76.7% at primary analysis [95% confidence interval (CI) 46.1, 90.0; p < 0.001], 83.0% at day 183 (95% CI 67.3, 91.2; nominal p < 0.001), and 46.3% at day 366 (95% CI 23.1, 62.4; nominal p < 0.001). Severe/critical COVID-19 was reduced by 91.4% with AZD7442 versus placebo by day 366 (95% CI 61.3, 98.1; nominal p < 0.0001). Adverse events (AEs) occurred in 58.2% and 58.0% of participants administered AZD7442 or placebo, respectively; serious AEs (SAEs) occurred in 6.2% and 5.6%, respectively. In STORM CHASER, the RRR in symptomatic COVID-19 for AZD7442 versus placebo was 33.3% at primary analysis (95% CI - 25.9, 64.7; p = 0.212), 43.3% at day 183 (95% CI 1.4, 67.4; nominal p = 0.044) and 3.4% at day 366 (95% CI - 35.6, 31.2; nominal p = 0.842). Severe/critical COVID-19 did not occur in participants receiving AZD7442 versus 0.5% of participants receiving placebo by day 366. AEs occurred in 46.5% and 51.9% of participants administered AZD7442 or placebo, respectively; SAEs occurred in 2.7% and 4.3%, respectively. In both studies, serum concentration-time profiles over 457 days were similar for tixagevimab and cilgavimab and consistent with the extended half-life reported for AZD7442 (approximately 90 days).
conclusionThis analysis provides proof of concept supporting long-term safety of intramuscularly administered AZD7442 for prevention of symptomatic/severe COVID-19.
