The antiviral BDGR-49 provides protection from lethal, neurotropic Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus intranasal infection in mice.
Article in Journal of virology, 2025. 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
Venezuelan, western, and eastern equine encephalitis virus (VEEV, WEEV, and EEEV) cause a febrile illness that may result in fatal neurological disease in humans and equines. Human infections are typically from mosquito bites, although cases from respiratory exposure in laboratory accidents have been documented. In addition to natural mosquito-borne infection, the potential biothreat inherent in the ability to disseminate these viruses via the respiratory route has driven the development of antiviral drugs for this route of exposure. To address this gap, we tested the prophylactic administration of a novel brain-penetrant, antiviral, BDGR-49, against a lethal intranasal challenge of VEEV, WEEV, or EEEV in BALB/c mouse model. BDGR-49 conferred 100% protection with 6 mg kg
