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

Prevention of cross-species infection with porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERV) is crucial for xenotransplantation. Previous studies described the potential risk of infection for the PERV gamma1 subfamilies A, B and C. Replication competent PERV gamma1 proviruses designated to a particular subfamily and hybrid viruses originating from retroviral recombination events between the subfamilies were observed. Future pig genome sequencing projects will reveal multiple novel PERV proviruses from additional breeds and animals. Evaluation of these viral genomes has to be carried out to assess the potential risk of retroviral cross-species infection. In this study, we tested common sequence comparison methods for the classification of PERV sequences and the detection of hybrid clones. The examination of the polymorphic nucleotide positions was found to be the most suitable procedure. We describe a fast and simple method using bioinformatic software tools which can also be applied to analogous analyses of other viral genomes.
