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

The effect of virus uncoating on endosome integrity during the early steps in viral infection was investigated. Using fluid-phase uptake of 10- and 70-kDa dextrans labeled with a pH-dependent fluorophore (fluorescein isothiocyanate [FITC]) and a pH-independent fluorophore (cyanine 5 [Cy5]), we determined the pHs of labeled compartments in intact HeLa cells by fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis. Subsequently, the number and pH of fluorescent endosomes in cell homogenates were determined by single-organelle flow analysis. Cointernalization of adenovirus and 70-kDa FITC- and Cy5-labeled dextran (FITC/Cy5-dextran) led to virus-induced endosomal rupture, resulting in the release of the marker from the low-pH environment into the neutral cytosol. Consequently, in the presence of adenovirus, the number of fluorescent endosomes was reduced by 40% compared to that in the control. When human rhinovirus serotype 2 (HRV2) was cointernalized with 10-and 70-kDa FITC/Cy5-dextrans, the 10-kDa dextran was released, whereas the 70-kDa dextran remained within the endosomes, which also maintained their low pH. These data demonstrate that pores are generated in the membrane during HRV2 uncoating and RNA penetration into the cytosol without gross damage of the endosomes; 10-kDa dextran can access the cytosol through these pores. Whereas rhinovirus-mediated pore formation was prevented by the vacuolar ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1, adenovirus-mediated endosomal rupture also occurred in the presence of the inhibitor. This finding is in keeping with the low-pH requirement of HRV2 infection; for adenovirus, no pH dependence for endosomal escape was found with this drug.
