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

Introduction: Human adenovirus serotype 4 (HAdV-4) is an epidemic pathogen associated with severe acute respiratory disease (ARD) in both pediatric and adult populations. Currently, no available vaccine or therapeutic interventions specifically targeting adenoviruses are available. Methods: In this study, we isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from HAdV-4 infected donors and generated fully human monoclonal antibodies using single-cell PCR technology. The antibodies were first characterized for their neutralization efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. Subsequently, we predicted key functional residues through structural modeling of antigen-antibody complexes and validated their roles via mutagenesis studies. Finally, the mechanism of intracellular neutralization of antibodies was explored. Results: Through systematic screening, we successfully isolated seven antibodies with specific binding activity, among which monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) 2CF4 and 4AC3 exhibited potent neutralizing capacity against HAdV-4. Notably, we modeled adenoviral lethality using Stat1 Discussion: Overall, mAb 2CF4 represents a promising candidate for safe and effective prophylactic and therapeutic strategies against HAdV-4 infection.
