Complete sequence and genomic analysis of rhesus cytomegalovirus.
Article in Journal of virology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 112 papers.
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
The complete DNA sequence of rhesus cytomegalovirus (RhCMV) strain 68-1 was determined with the whole-genome shotgun approach on virion DNA. The RhCMV genome is 221,459 bp in length and possesses a 49% G+C base composition. The genome contains 230 potential open reading frames (ORFs) of 100 or more codons that are arranged colinearly with counterparts of previously sequenced betaherpesviruses such as human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). Of the 230 RhCMV ORFs, 138 (60%) are homologous to known HCMV proteins. The conserved ORFs include the structural, replicative, and transcriptional regulatory proteins, immune evasion elements, G protein-coupled receptors, and immunoglobulin homologues. Interestingly, the RhCMV genome also contains sequences with homology to cyclooxygenase-2, an enzyme associated with inflammatory processes. Closer examination identified a series of candidate exons with the capacity to encode a full-length cyclooxygenase-2 protein. Counterparts of cyclooxygenase-2 have not been found in other sequenced herpesviruses. The availability of the complete RhCMV sequence along with the ability to grow RhCMV in vitro will facilitate the construction of recombinant viral strains for identifying viral determinants of CMV pathogenicity in the experimentally infected rhesus macaque and to the development of CMV as a vaccine vector.
