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

K-type major-group human rhinoviruses (HRVs) (including HRV54) share a prominent lysine residue in the HI surface loop of VP1 with all minor-group HRVs. Despite the presence of this residue, they cannot use members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor family for productive infection. Reexamining all K-type viruses for receptor usage, we noticed that HRV54 is able to replicate in RD cells that lack the major-group receptor intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1). By using receptor blocking assays, inhibition of sulfation, enzymatic digestion, and proteoglycan-deficient cell lines, we show here that wild-type HRV54, without any adaptation, uses heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycan as an alternate receptor. However, infection via HS is less efficient than infection via ICAM-1. Moreover, HRV54 has an acid lability profile similar to that of the minor-group virus HRV2. In ICAM-1-deficient cells its replication is completely blocked by the H(+)-ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1, whereas in ICAM-1-expressing cells it replicates in the presence of the drug. Thus, use of a "noncatalytic" receptor requires the virus to be highly unstable at low pH.
