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

Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease that afflicts millions of people globally, leading to substantial morbidity and mortality. Developing novel antivenoms, particularly recombinant antivenoms based on broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies, offers a promising strategy to address the challenge posed by venom variability. However, the extensive diversity of snake venom toxins across species and geographical regions makes this goal inherently complex. Consequently, there is a pressing need for robust discovery methodologies capable of identifying broadly neutralizing antibodies with high affinity and functional potency against a wide range of toxin families. In this study, we engineered a short-chain consensus (SCC) α-neurotoxin to serve as an antigen for a phage display - based antibody discovery campaign. The SCC was expressed using a yeast system, enabling the identification of seven variable domains of heavy-chain-only antibodies (V
