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

Nearly 4 billion people worldwide reside in dengue virus (DENV) endemic areas. Primary dengue infection generates both type-specific and cross-reactive immunity. While serotype-specific immunity provides long-term protection against homologous virus challenge, cross-reactive immunity is short-lived and, upon subsequent heterotypic exposure, can increase the risk of severe clinical outcomes. Therefore, it is critical to measure type-specific immunity. The current resource-intensive and technically demanding approach of removing antibodies using purified whole virions and subsequently assessing type-specific immunity through neutralization assays is practical only for small-scale studies. We developed a novel, straightforward method that uses transfected suspension cells stably expressing DENV non-structural protein 1 (NS1) IMPORTANCE: Accurately determining dengue serotype exposure remains challenging because current serotyping methods are labor-intensive, costly, and often rely on engineered viral antigens or antibodies to capture native immune components. We developed a streamlined approach that removes NS1-specific antibodies from dengue convalescent plasma using transfected cells that express NS1
