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

Signal transduction pathways convey signals generated at the cell surface into the cell nucleus in order to initiate a program of gene expression that is characteristic for particular stimuli. Here we present evidence that infection by herpes simplex virus type 1 activated the two terminal kinases, cJUN N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38, of stress-activated signal transduction kinase cascades. By using a solid-phase kinase assay, a phospho-specific antibody, and extracts prepared from a variety of infected cell types, we determined that activation of both kinases began 3 to 4 h postinfection (p.i.) and remained elevated out to 14 h p.i. Through the use of UV-irradiated or antibody-neutralized wild-type virus and the temperature-sensitive mutant tsB7, the high level of JNK activation was shown to be dependent on viral gene expression. Activation of JNK following infection by vi13, an ICP4 mutant virus that does not express early or late genes, suggested that only virus entry and immediate-early gene expression were necessary for JNK activation. The activation of JNK and p38 correlated with increased chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) activity in reporter assays dependent upon the activity of cJUN and ATF2 trans-activation domains. Increased CAT activity dependent on TRE and CRE promoter sites was also observed in response to herpes simplex virus infection. The activities of ERK and ERK-dependent transcription factors were unchanged or depressed following infection, showing that activation of JNK and p38 was a specific event. Finally, the activation of JNK was important for the efficiency of viral replication. The yield of virus in NIH 3T3 cells stably expressing JIP-1, an inhibitor of JNK translocation to the nucleus, was reduced 70% compared to that of control cells, in single-step growth experiments.
