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

Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the major viral cause of birth defects and a serious problem for immunocompromised individuals. Here we show that infection of cells with HCMV during the S-phase of the cell cycle results in two specific chromosome 1 breaks at positions 1q42 and 1q21. We demonstrate that purified virions, and not infected cell supernatant alone, are responsible for the damage. In addition, we show that the specific breaks occur when different sources of fibroblasts and strains of HCMV are used. Incubation of the virus with neutralizing antibody prevents the induction of breaks. However, UV-inactivated virus is as efficient as untreated virus in inducing specific damage to chromosome 1. Thus, there is a requirement for viral adsorption/penetration, but not new viral gene expression. This HCMV-mediated induction of site-specific damage in actively dividing cells may provide clues for the development of neurological defects in the congenitally infected infant.
