PFOA induced metabolic and immune perturbations in a SARS-2 infection model.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study evaluates the impact of PFOA exposure on the metabolome and immune response to SARS-2 using a ferret model. Ferrets were separated into control or PFOA-exposed groups (10/mg/kg/day) and challenged with SARS-2. Longitudinal analyses encompassing clinical assessments, serological profiling, histopathology, and untargeted nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) metabolomics revealed significant metabolic and immunological perturbations. We found prominent effects of PFOA exposure on metabolism, which resulted in altered metabolic responses to SARS-2 infection. PFOA exposure was also associated with impaired immune function, as evidenced by decreased serum IgG levels, increased viral loads, and prolonged peak infectivity. These findings underscore the consequences of PFOA exposure on host metabolism and immunity during infectious diseases.
