Possible contribution of rare alleles of human ACE2 in the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants escaping the immune response.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Since the start of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the rapid replacement of one lineage by another has been observed. Indeed, SARS-CoV-2 is evolving through a quasispecies mechanism leading to post-infection mutation selection under positive evolutionary pressure (host-driven viral evolution). These mutations may reduce the effectiveness of the specific neutralizing immune response against the virus. We provide here evidence that apart from the selection of SARS-CoV-2 variants by the immune system, selection by the cellular receptor can just as well select variants which escape neutralization.
