Assessing the pandemic potential of Nipah virus: From molecular pathogenesis to ecological spillover risks.
Review in Infectious medicine, 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
Nipah virus, a highly lethal zoonotic paramyxovirus with a case‑fatality rate of 40-75%, poses a formidable threat to global health security. This review synthesizes its evolving epidemiology, contrasting the Malaysian and Bangladesh‑India strains, and dissects molecular pathogenesis focusing on G/F glycoprotein recognition of ephrin receptors and the multi‑layered immune evasion mediated by P gene products. Phylogenetic analyses reveal 8-10% nucleotide divergence between lineages, with positive selection in the G protein that may compromise vaccine cross‑protection. Ecological risk amplifiers-deforestation and climate‑driven habitat loss-reshape spillover dynamics through spatial expansion of bat foraging, prolonged risk windows, and pathway diversification. Deforestation exceeding 5% per decade correlates with a 2-3‑fold increase in spillover events in Bangladesh. A dynamic risk‑assessment framework is proposed that views pandemic potential as the convergence of viral evolution, ecological amplification, and geographic expansion-from South Asia to
