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 S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAH) and 14-3-3 zeta/phospholipase A2 (PLA2) are transcriptionally activated in parallel to the induction of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) lytic cycle by the ganglioside IV(3)NeuAc-nLcOse(4)Cer. For analysis of the initiation of the viral reactivation, SAH and 14-3-3 zeta/PLA2 were overexpressed. Expression of EA-D, BZLF1, and BHRF1 was increased in response to both, SAH- and 14-3-3 zeta/PLA2 overexpression indicating the initiation of the EBV lytic cycle. Expression of 14-3-3 zeta/PLA2 was shown to be increased in SAH overexpressing cells. Additionally, SAH-triggered initiation of viral reactivation could be inhibited by PLA2-specific inhibitors. The phosphorylation status of protein kinase C (PKC) was shown to be increased in SAH-overexpressing cells. PKC-specific inhibitors arrested SAH-triggered initiation of viral reactivation. Surprisingly, 14-3-3 zeta/PLA2-induced initiation of viral reactivation did not correlate with PKC activation. PKC-specific inhibitors were of no influence. SAH initiated EBV reactivation via the BZLF1-Zp and the BZLF1-Rp promoter, whereas 14-3-3 zeta/PLA2 was connected to the promoter Rp only. Our results suggest two routes of viral reactivation involving SAH, one associated with PKC and BZLF1-Zp, the other associated with 14-3-3 zeta/PLA2 and BZLF1-Rp.
