1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

COVID-19 vaccine adaptation is critical to respond to continuously emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants with enhanced immune evasion. The ARVAC protein subunit vaccine, based on the receptor binding domain of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, has been adapted to XBB.1.5 and JN.1 variants, as monovalent and bivalent formulations. Preclinical studies in mice showed that ARVAC XBB.1.5 and JN.1 monovalent vaccines induced strong neutralizing antibodies against XBB and JN.1 lineages, though with limited efficacy against phylogenetically distant variants. By contrast, bivalent formulations combining Gamma antigen with either XBB.1.5 or JN.1 antigens demonstrated superior cross-neutralizing activity, covering variants from Ancestral to JN.1. Additionally, Gamma-containing bivalent vaccines elicited neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-1, highlighting their potential for broad-spectrum immunity. Cellular immune studies confirmed robust CD4
