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

Freshly isolated monocytes rapidly undergo physiological changes in vitro, resulting in programmed cell death (apoptosis). Activation of monocytes, which promotes differentiation into macrophages, is known to inhibit apoptotic processes. In the present study, we report that human herpesvirus-6 (HHV-6) prevents monocytes from undergoing spontaneous apoptosis during the first 72 hours of culture. Furthermore, significant alterations in cell-surface phenotype were observed after 72 hours of infection with HHV-6. HHV-6-infected monocyte cultures have considerably reduced levels of CD14, CD64 (FcgammaRI) and HLA-DR antigen on their surface, while CD32 (FcgammaRII) expression is unaffected. On the basis of these results, we hypothesize that HHV-6 promotes monocytes survival and causes phenotypic modifications that could favor immune evasion and ensure its persistence within the infected host.
