Both chebulagic acid and punicalagin inhibit respiratory syncytial virus entry via multi-targeting glycoprotein and fusion protein.
Article in Journal of virology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections, with no currently available small-molecule drugs that are both safe and effective. A major obstacle in antiviral drug development is the rapid emergence of drug-resistant viral strains. Targeting multiple viral compounds may help mitigate the development of resistance. Herein, we conducted a drug screening using the Antiviral Traditional Chinese Medicine Active Compound Library, aiming to identify compounds that simultaneously target the RSV fusion (F) protein, glycoprotein (G), and the host heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs). From this screening, 10 candidate compounds were identified for their ability to interact with all three targets. Among these 10 candidates, chebulagic acid (CHLA) and punicalagin (PUG) demonstrated the most potent inhibition of RSV replication.
