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
Antibody responses to the influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) stem, a major target for broadly protective vaccine development, have been extensively characterized in humans. However, they remain largely elusive in other natural influenza hosts, including pigs, which are considered intermediate hosts for the emergence of pandemic strains. By leveraging single-cell variable, diversity, and joining (VDJ) sequencing, this study identified 25 porcine antibodies to the HA stem, including two cross-group bnAbs, 14-8 and 15-1, from vaccinated specific-pathogen-free pigs and unvaccinated domestic pigs. Cryogenic electron microscopy analysis showed that 14-8 targeted the well-characterized central stem epitope, whereas 15-1 bound to a linear epitope spanning the HA1/HA2 junction. Additionally, while some porcine and human bnAbs targeted the central stem epitope via convergent molecular signatures, our results revealed a pig-specific recurring binding motif. Overall, our findings provide important insights into the commonalities and uniqueness of antibody responses between different species, which have significant implications for vaccine development for nonhuman animals.
