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

Recently, human infections with H10 influenza viruses, including H10N8 and H10N3, have been reported. In January 2024, a case of H10N5 and H3N2 co-infection was reported in Zhejiang Province, China, which is the first human infection with H10N5 avian influenza virus (AIV) globally. Almost simultaneously, we isolated a wild bird-derived H10N5 strain similar to the human H10N5 strain. To assess the public health risk, it is necessary to understand the zoonotic characteristics of these novel H10N5 viruses. Here, we evaluated the biological characteristics of human H10N5, wild bird H10N5, as well as poultry H10N8 IMPORTANCE: In 2024, the H10N5 AIV was first reported to infect humans. Concurrently, we isolated a strain of H10N5 from wild birds that was highly similar to the human H10N5 strain. However, the zoonotic potential and the associated public health risks of the H10N5 virus remain unclear. In this study, we systematically evaluated the replication characteristics of human H10N5, wild bird H10N5, and poultry H10N8 in human lung epithelial cells, the virulence in mice, the transmission capabilities in guinea pigs, and the receptor-binding properties. Our results demonstrate that these novel H10N5 viruses have not yet acquired the ability to transmit in guinea pigs, but they possess the potential to infect mammals. These findings provide timely insights and warnings for the development of public health prevention strategies.
