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

Epstein-Barr virus encodes integral membrane proteins LMP1 and LMP2A in transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines. We now find that LMP1 associates with the cell cytoskeleton through a tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor-interacting domain, most likely mediated by tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 3. LMP1 is palmitoylated, and the transmembrane domains associate with lipid rafts. Mutation of LMP1 cysteine-78 abrogates palmitoylation but does not affect raft association or NF-kappaB or c-Jun N-terminal kinase activation. LMP2A also associates with rafts and is palmitoylated but does not associate with the cell cytoskeleton. The associations of LMP1 and LMP2A with rafts and of LMP1 with the cell cytoskeleton are likely to effect interactions with cell proteins involved in shape, motility, signal transduction, growth, and survival.
