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
backgroundHuman noroviruses are the leading cause of foodborne gastroenteritis worldwide. Accumulating evidence suggests that food matrices containing fucosylated or histo-blood group antigen (HBGA)-like glycans may facilitate viral attachment and persistence, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying these interactions remain unclear.
methodsIn this study, we performed a comparative computational analysis of norovirus-glycan interactions by integrating AlphaFold3-based structure prediction, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations. A total of 182 P-domain models representing all genotypes across five human norovirus genogroups (GI, GII, GIV, GVIII, and GIX) were predicted and docked with a lettuce-derived core-fucosylated hexasaccharide (H
resultsDocking results indicated that the majority of modeled P proteins were able to adopt energetically favorable interaction poses with H
conclusionsThis work provides a large-scale structural and energetic assessment of the potential interactions between a naturally occurring lettuce-derived fucosylated hexasaccharide and human norovirus P domains. The results support the notion that core-fucosylated food-associated glycans can serve as interaction partners for diverse norovirus genotypes and offer comparative molecular insights into glycan recognition patterns relevant to foodborne transmission. The integrative AlphaFold3-docking-dynamics framework presented here may facilitate future investigations of virus-glycan interactions within food matrices.
