Classical BSE emergence from Nor98/atypical scrapie: Unraveling the shift vs. selection dichotomy in the prion field.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Prion diseases can manifest with distinct phenotypes in a single species, a phenomenon known as prion strains. Upon cross-species transmission, alterations in the disease phenotype can occur, interpreted as the emergence of a new strain. Two main and non-mutually exclusive evolutionary hypotheses have been proposed to explain this phenomenon: the "conformational shift" or "deformed templating" and the "conformational selection." The conformational shift hypothesis proposes that the introduction of a new host prion protein (PrP
