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

Life-long latent herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is harbored in sensory neurons where sporadic reactivation occurs. Reactivation stimuli may involve activation of apoptotic signaling in the neuron. Previous experiments have demonstrated that reactivation of latent HSV-1 in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neuronal cultures occurred following nerve growth factor (NGF) deprivation. NGF deprivation stimulates apoptotic signaling by activating the proapoptotic proteolytic enzyme, caspase-3. When DRG neuronal cultures harboring latent HSV-1 were treated with a caspase-3-specific inhibitor, NGF deprivation-induced reactivation was significantly reduced. Interestingly, the caspase-3 inhibitor had no effect on productive HSV-1 infection. Furthermore, activation of caspase-3 with either C2-ceramide or a recombinant adenovirus expressing caspase-3 caused significant HSV-1 reactivation.
