Toward the Development of a Pan-Lyssavirus Vaccine.
Article in Viruses, 2024. 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
In addition to the rabies virus (RABV), 16 more lyssavirus species have been identified worldwide, causing a disease similar to RABV. Non-rabies-related human deaths have been described, but the number of cases is unknown, and the potential of such lyssaviruses causing human disease is unpredictable. The current rabies vaccine does not protect against divergent lyssaviruses such as Mokola virus (MOKV) or Lagos bat virus (LBV). Thus, a more broad pan-lyssavirus vaccine is needed. Here, we evaluate a novel lyssavirus vaccine with an attenuated RABV vector harboring a chimeric RABV glycoprotein (G) in which the antigenic site I of MOKV replaces the authentic site of rabies virus (RABVG-cAS1). The recombinant vaccine was utilized to immunize mice and analyze the immune response compared to homologous vaccines. Our findings indicate that the vaccine RABVG-cAS1 was immunogenic and induced high antibody titers against both RABVG and MOKVG. Challenge studies with different lyssaviruses showed that replacing a single antigenic site of RABV G with the corresponding site of MOKV G provides a significant improvement over the homologous RABV vaccine and protects against RABV, Irkut virus (IRKV), and MOKV. This strategy of epitope chimerization paves the way towards a pan-lyssavirus vaccine to safely combat the diseases caused by these viruses.
