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 core protein of pestiviruses is released from the polyprotein by viral and cellular proteinases. Here we report on an additional intramembrane proteolytic step that generates the C terminus of the core protein. C-terminal processing of the core protein of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) was blocked by the inhibitor (Z-LL)(2)-ketone, which is specific for signal peptide peptidase (SPP). The same effect was obtained by overexpression of the dominant-negative SPP D(265)A mutant. The presence of (Z-LL)(2)-ketone reduced the viability of CSFV almost 100-fold in a concentration-dependent manner. Reduction of virus viability was also observed in infection experiments using a cell line that inducibly expressed SPP D(265)A. The position of SPP cleavage was determined by C-terminal sequencing of core protein purified from virions. The C terminus of CSFV core protein is alanine(255) and is located in the hydrophobic center of the signal peptide. The intramembrane generation of the C terminus of the CSFV core protein is almost identical to the processing scheme of the core protein of hepatitis C viruses.
