Pair combinations of human monoclonal antibodies fully protected mice against bunyavirus SFTSV lethal challenge.
Article in PLoS pathogens, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a viral hemorrhagic fever caused by a tick-borne virus SFTSV with a mortality rate of up to 30%. Currently, there is no vaccine or effective therapy for SFTS. Neutralizing monoclonal antibody therapy, which provides immediate passive immunity and may limit disease progression, has emerged as a reliable approach for developing therapeutic drugs for SFTS. In this study, 4 human monoclonal antibodies (hmAbs) derived from convalescent SFTS patients' lymphocytes based on human single-chain variable fragment antibody libraries were tested for their neutralizing activities in cells and their treatment effect in animals individually and in pair combinations. The neutralization test showed that all 4 hmAbs exhibited strong neutralizing activity against SFTSV infection in vitro. The protection rate of hmAbs 4-6, 1F6, 1B2, and 4-5 against SFTSV lethal challenge in IFNAR1-/- A129 mice are 50%, 16.7%, 83.3%, and 66.7%, respectively. Notably, the pair combination of antibodies (1B2 and 4-5, 1B2 and 1F6) that recognized distinct epitopes protected 100% of mice against SFTSV lethal challenge. In conclusion, our findings indicate that the pair combinations of hmAbs 1B2 and 4-5 or hmAbs 1B2 and 1F6 may serve as promising therapeutic drugs for treating SFTSV infection.
