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

Essential viral proteins perform vital functions during morphogenesis via a complex interaction with other viral and cellular gene products. Here, we present a novel approach to comprehensive mutagenesis of essential cytomegalovirus genes and biological analysis in the 230-kbp-genome context. A random Tn7-based mutagenesis procedure at the single-gene level was combined with site-specific recombination via the FLP/FLP recognition target site system for viral genome reconstitution. We show the function of more than 100 mutants from a larger library of M50/p35, a protein involved in capsid egress from the nucleus. This protein recruits other viral proteins and cellular enzymes to the inner nuclear membrane. Our approach enabled us to rapidly discriminate between essential and nonessential regions within the coding sequence. Based on the prediction of the screen, we were able to map a site essential for viral protein-protein interaction at the amino acid level.
