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

Latent membrane protein 2B (LMP2B) is expressed during latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, but little is known about its role. The goal of this study was to determine whether an LMP2B homologue is conserved in the rhesus monkey lymphocryptovirus (LCV). Both rhesus LCV LMP2A and LMP2B genes were cloned and sequenced. The rhesus LCV LMP2B gene is positionally conserved, and the EBNA-2 responsiveness and the bidirectional nature of the LMP1-LMP2B promoter have also been functionally conserved. However, this region of the genome encoding the LMP1, LMP1-LMP2B promoter, and LMP2B first exon demonstrates the most dramatic nucleotide sequence divergence between human and nonhuman LCV observed to date. Evolution of the rhesus LCV LMP2B promoter and transcript despite the dynamic nature of this genomic region reflects strong selective pressure for a yet-to-be-identified LMP2B function.
