Immunologic and biophysical features of the BNT162b2 JN.1 and KP.2 adapted COVID-19 vaccines.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The rise in prevalence of the SARS-CoV-2 JN.1 lineage in 2023 and subsequent derivative sublineages coincided with reduced neutralizing activity and effectiveness of XBB.1.5-adapted vaccines. Here, we characterize the biophysical and immunologic attributes of BNT162b2 JN.1- and KP.2-adapted mRNA vaccine-encoded spike (S) proteins. We reveal the structural consequences of key amino acid substitutions in S and a potential molecular mechanism of immune escape employed by JN.1 and KP.2 viruses. The two vaccines, administered as fourth or fifth doses in BNT162b2-experienced mice, or as a primary series in naïve mice, confer improved neutralizing responses over the BNT162b2 XBB.1.5-adapted vaccine against a broad panel of JN.1 sublineages. Mapping of neutralizing responses indicate greater antigenic overlap of JN.1 and KP.2 vaccines with JN.1 sublineages, while CD4
