Anti-viral action against type 1 diabetes autoimmunity: The GPPAD-AVAnT1A study protocol.

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
Viral infections in the first year of life are associated with islet autoimmunity and type 1 diabetes risk. The Anti-Viral Action against Type 1 Diabetes Autoimmunity (AVAnT1A)- study is a clinical phase IV investigator initiated, randomised, controlled, multicentre, primary prevention trial conducted to determine whether vaccination against COVID-19 from 6 months of age reduces the cumulative incidence of islet autoantibodies or type 1 diabetes in children with elevated genetic risk. Additionally, it investigates the role of viral infections in the etiology of islet autoimmunity by intense surveillance within the first two years of life. Infants aged 3.00-4.00 months from Germany, Belgium, UK and Sweden are eligible if they have a >10 % expected risk to develop islet autoantibodies by age 6 years as determined by HLA DR/DQ genotype, polygenic risk score and family history of type 1 diabetes. A total of 2252 eligible children are randomized 1:1 to COVID-19 vaccine (Comirnaty® 3 μg Omicron XBB.1.5 or future new variants) or placebo (0.9 % Sodium Chloride) administered three times. Children are followed until the minimum age of 2.5 years and maximum age of 6 years. The intervention is accompanied by analyses of immune and metabolic parameters to determine changes induced by viral infections and to investigate mechanisms by which viral infection may lead to islet autoimmunity. The Sponsor is the Klinikum rechts der Isar, Technical University Munich. The study was approved by Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS, EU Trial number: 2023-507348-35-00) and by Integrated Research Application System (IRAS, IRAS-ID: 1009668).
