Construction and preliminary characterization of a library of "lethal" preterminal protein mutant adenoviruses.
Article in Journal of virology, 1999. 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
Adenoviruses containing lethal in-frame insertion mutant alleles of the preterminal protein (pTP) gene were constructed with cell lines that express pTP. Thirty in-frame insertion mutant alleles, including 26 alleles previously characterized as lethal and 4 newly constructed mutant alleles, were introduced into the viral chromosome in place of the wild-type pTP gene. The viruses were tested for ability to form plaques at 37 degrees C in HeLa-pTP cells and at 32 degrees C and 39.5 degrees C in HeLa cells. Two of the newly constructed viruses exhibited temperature sensitivity for plaque formation, one virus did not form plaques in the absence of complementation, seven additional mutants exhibited a greater than 10-fold reduction in plaque formation in the absence of complementation, and another eight mutants exhibited stronger phenotypes than did previously characterized in-frame insertion mutants in the plaque assay. These mutant viruses offer promise for analysis of pTP functions.
