Development of KSHV vaccine platforms and chimeric MHV68-K-K8.1 glycoprotein for evaluating the
Article in mBio, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV)/human herpesvirus 8 is an etiological agent of Kaposi's Sarcoma, multicentric Castleman's disease, and primary effusion lymphoma. Considering the high seroprevalence reaching up to 80% in sub-Saharan Africa, an effective vaccine is crucial for preventing KSHV infection. However, vaccine development has been limited due to the lack of an effective animal model that supports KSHV infection. Murine Herpesvirus 68 (MHV68), a natural mouse pathogen persisting lifelong post-infection, presents a promising model for KSHV infection. In this study, we developed KSHV vaccine and a chimeric MHV68 carrying the KSHV glycoprotein, serving as a surrogate challenge virus for testing KSHV vaccines in a mouse model. Among KSHV virion glycoproteins, K8.1 is the most abundant envelope glycoprotein with the highest immunogenicity. We developed two K8.1 vaccines: K8.1 mRNA-lipid nanoparticle (LNP) vaccine and K8.1
