Recombinant EHV-1 Vector Expressing Immunodominant Hemagglutinin Protein of Equine Influenza Virus H3N8 (Sub-Lineage Florida Clade 2).
Article in Vaccines, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundEquine herpesvirus type 1 (EHV-1) and equine influenza virus (EIV) are major respiratory pathogens in horses, causing significant economic losses in domesticated horses. Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) technology can be used to precisely manipulate the EHV-1 genome for the development of live-attenuated vector vaccines. Earlier, our group developed a live-attenuated EHV-1 vaccine by deleting virulence-associated genes using this technology and the mutant EHV-1 has been exploited for expressing foreign gene in the current study. Specifically, in this study, a mutant EHV-1 virus expressing the hemagglutinin (HA) gene of H3N8 EIV (sub-lineage: Florida clade 2) was generated and characterized in vitro.
methodsThe HA gene of EIV (Florida clade 2) was used for antigen gene cloning. The expression cassette for the HA gene was commercially synthesized and inserted into the backbone of EHV1∆IR6 BAC using an
resultsPCR and RFLP confirmed the successful insertion of the HA gene into pEHV1∆IR6/gE BAC. The recombinant virus, vEHV1∆IR6/gE-HA(FC2), was successfully rescued in RK13 cells and demonstrated expression of the EIV haemagglutinin proteins by immunofluorescence assay. Although plaque size was reduced in the generated mutant virus in comparison to parental virus, the growth kinetics of the recombinant viruses were comparable to those of vEHV1∆IR6/gE.
conclusionsThese findings demonstrate the successful expression of immunodominant hemagglutinin protein of EIV by recombinant EHV-1 and indicate the potential suitability of EHV-1 BAC as a vector platform for foreign gene expression.
