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

Members of the herpesviridae family including Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) persist latently in their hosts and harbor their genomes as closed circular episomes. Propagation of the KSHV genome into new daughter cells requires replication of the episome once every cell division and is considered critically dependent on expression of the virus encoded latency-associated nuclear antigen (LANA). This study demonstrates a LANA-independent mechanism of KSHV latent DNA replication. A cis-acting DNA element within a discreet KSHV genomic region termed the long unique region (LUR) can initiate and support replication of plasmids lacking LANA-binding sequences or a eukaryotic replication origin. The human cellular replication machinery proteins ORC2 and MCM3 associated with the LUR element and depletion of cellular ORC2 abolished replication of the plasmids indicating that recruitment of the host cellular replication machinery is important for LUR-dependent replication. Thus, KSHV can initiate replication of its genome independent of any trans-acting viral factors.
