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

Several cellular proteins are synthesized in the cytosol on free ribosomes and then associate with membranes due to the presence of short peptide sequences. These membrane-targeting sequences contain sites to which lipid chains are attached, which help direct the protein to a particular membrane domain and anchor it firmly in the bilayer. The intracellular concentration of these proteins in particular cellular compartments, where their interacting partners are also concentrated, is essential to their function. This paper reports that the apparently unmodified N-terminal sequence of the Sendai virus C protein (MPSFLKKILKLRGRR . . .; letters in italics represent hydrophobic residues; underlined letters represent basic residues, which has a strong propensity to form an amphipathic alpha-helix in a hydrophobic environment) also function as a membrane targeting signal and membrane anchor. Moreover, the intracellular localization of the C protein at the plasma membrane is essential for inducing the interferon-independent phosphorylation of Stat1 as part of the viral program to prevent the cellular antiviral response.
