Virion motility of sialoglycan-cleaving respiratory viruses.
Review in Npj viruses, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Here, we review how respiratory viruses function as molecular motors by exploiting their glycan receptor-binding and -destroying glycoproteins. The resulting virion motility drives their mucus penetration and exploration of cell surfaces for locations permitting induction of entry. We discuss the role of virus morphology, kinetic parameters of receptor engagement and receptor heterogeneity, summarize physical models for virion motility and identify key gaps in our understanding of these dynamic processes.
