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

Parvovirus B19 has been implicated in some cases of acute fulminant non-A, non-B, non-C, non-G liver failure. Our laboratory previously demonstrated that B19 infection of hepatocytes induces apoptosis and that the B19 viral nonstructural protein, NS1, may play a critical role. To study the involvement of NS1 in apoptosis of liver cells, we generated a fusion protein of NS1 with enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) in a system allowing for inducible gene expression. Transfection of the liver-derived cell line HepG2 with the eGFP/NS1 vector allowed expression of the fusion protein, which was visualized by fluorescence microscopy and demonstrated by immunoblotting. The fusion protein localized to discrete domains in the nucleus. Transfection of HepG2 cells with the eGFP/NS1 vector led to apoptosis of 35% of transfected cells, a sevenfold increase over cells transfected with the parent eGFP expression vector. Mutation of the eGFP/NS1 vector to eliminate the nucleoside triphosphate-binding site of NS1 significantly decreased apoptosis, as did treatment of transfected cells with inhibitors of caspase 3 or 9. Neutralization of tumor necrosis factor alpha or Fas ligand had no effect on apoptosis. These results demonstrate that NS1 is sufficient to induce apoptosis in liver-derived cells and that it does so through the initiation of an intrinsic caspase pathway.
