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

H9N2 is currently the second most common avian influenza A virus subtype infecting humans. Monitoring viral phenotypic and genotypic adaptation to humans is crucial for risk assessment. Here, we compared the replication of an H9N2 human isolate collected in 2024 (A/HK/2346/2024) to a human isolate collected in 1999 (A/HK/1073/1999). In Madin Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, A/HK/2346/2024 and A/HK/1073/1999 replicated to 8 and 5 log10 plaque-forming units (PFU) per ml, respectively. In both human nasal and lung organoids, A/HK/2346/2024 replicated to 6 log10 PFU/ml, but A/HK/1073/1999 failed to replicate in either organoid. The infection rates of both ciliated and non-ciliated cells and the ratios of infected 2,6/2,3 cells were higher for A/HK/2346/2024 than A/HK/1073/1999. Apart from the mammalian adaptive substitutions that were present in the nasopharyngeal specimen collected on day 1 post-symptom onset (pso) (HA-D183N/D190 T/Q192R/Q226L; NA-del62-64; PB2-A588V/K702R; PB1-I368V; PA-K356R/S409N; M1-R95K), the mammalian-adaptive substitution PB2-D253N emerged
