1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) can naturally infect a broad spectrum of animal species, with cats, minks, and ferrets being highly susceptible. There is a potential risk that infected animals could transmit viruses to humans. Moreover, SARS-CoV-2 continues to evolve via mutation and genetic recombination, resulting in the continuous emergence of new variants that have triggered a wave of reinfection. Therefore, safe and effective corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines for animals are still being sought.

methodsWe generated three recombinant Modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVAs) expressing the prefusion-stabilized S proteins, S6P, DS6P, and BA2S6P, targeting the full-length S protein genes of the ancestral, Delta, and Omicron BA.2 strains of SARS-CoV-2. Subsequently, the safety, immunogenicity, and protective efficacy of these MVA-based oral COVID-19 vaccine candidates were assessed in mice, minks, and cats.

resultsThese recombinant MVAs are safe in mice, minks, and cats. Oral or intramuscular vaccination with rMVA-S6P induced a robust SARS-CoV-2 neutralizing antibody (NA) response and conferred complete protection against the SARS-CoV-2 challenge in mice. Meanwhile, oral or intramuscular administration of these recombinant MVAs in combination induced a potent and durable NA response against homotypic SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus in mice, minks, and cats, respectively.

conclusionsThese findings suggest that the MVA-vectored vaccines are promising oral COVID-19 vaccine candidates for animals, and that the combined vaccination approach is an effective administration strategy for such vaccines.
