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
SARS-CoV-2 variant clades continue to circumvent antibody responses elicited by vaccination or infection. Current parenteral vaccination strategies reduce illness and hospitalization, yet do not significantly protect against infection by the more recent variants. It is thought that mucosal vaccination strategies may better protect against infection by inducing immunity at the sites of infection, blocking viral transmission more effectively, and significantly inhibiting the evolution of new variants of concern (VOCs). In this study, we evaluated the immunogenicity and efficacy of a mucosally-delivered, non-replicating, adenovirus type 5-vectored vaccine that expresses the spike (S) gene of Wuhan (rAd5-S-Wuhan), delta (rAd5-S-delta), or omicron (rAd5-S-omicron) SARS-CoV-2 VOCs. Hamsters were immunized with these vaccines intranasally prior to challenge with omicron or delta variants. Additionally, one group was vaccinated by oral gavage with rAd5-S-Wuhan prior to challenge with the delta variant. Both intranasal and oral administration of rAd5-S-Wuhan generated cross-reactive serum IgG and mucosal IgA to all variant spike and RBD proteins tested. rAd5-S-omicron and rAd5-S-delta additionally elicited cross-reactive antibodies, though rAd5-S-omicron had significantly lower binding antibody levels except against its matched antigens. Two weeks after the final vaccination, hamsters were challenged with a SARS-CoV-2 variant; omicron or delta. Whether matched to the challenge or with rAd5-S-Wuhan, all vaccines protected hamsters from weight loss and lung pathology caused by challenge and significantly reduced viral shedding compared to placebo. Vaccination with rAd5-S-Wuhan provided significant protection, although there was an improved reduction in shedding and disease pathology in groups protected by the matched VOC vaccines. Nevertheless, Wuhan-based vaccination elicited the most cross-reactive antibody responses generally. Overall, heterologous vaccination
