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

One of the consequences of equine herpesvirus 1 (EHV-1) infection in the natural host is a neurological disease that can lead to paralysis. The pathology associated with EHV-1-induced neurological disease includes vasculitis of the small blood vessels within the central nervous system and subsequent damage to the surrounding neural tissue. In a previous study, an EHV-1 recombinant KyA virus (KgI/gE/75) was generated in which the sequences encoding glycoprotein I (gI) and glycoprotein E (gE) were repaired [Frampton et al. 2002 (Virus Research 90: 287-301)] using genes of the pathogenic EHV-1 strain 89c25. In contrast to the parental KyA virus that lacks gI and gE, the recombinant KgI/gE/75 was able to spread to the brains of CBA mice after intranasal infection. Infection resulted in a meningoencephalitis characterized by lymphocytic cuffing of small blood vessels within the brain, consistent with that observed in EHV-1-infected horses exhibiting neurological signs. KgI/gE/75 was able to elicit cytopathology in the lung prior to spread to the brain. However, like the attenuated KyA strain, KgI/gE/75 did not persist in the lung and was completely cleared from lung tissue by day 5 postinfection. We propose that gI and gE are neurovirulence factors for EHV-1, and that the CBA mouse model can be extended to study neurologic sequelae resulting after EHV-1 infection.
