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

Influenza virus infection remains a major global health burden, with severe disease outcomes driven not only by viral replication but also by excessive host inflammatory responses. Current antiviral therapies predominantly target viral components and fail to adequately control virus-induced hyperinflammation. In this study, we report a dual-target therapeutic strategy integrating direct antiviral activity with host-directed immunomodulation. Using a molecular hybridization approach, we designed and synthesized several dual-target inhibitors simultaneously targeting the influenza virus PB2 cap-binding subunit and host JAK2 kinase. Among them, PB05 emerged as the most promising candidate and was systematically evaluated in vitro and in vivo. PB05 exhibited potent broad-spectrum antiviral activity against influenza A viruses, with nanomolar EC
