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

Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) plays a key role in activating immune responses during viral infection. To study the genes involved in the regulatory function of TLR3 in the rare minnow Gobiocypris rarus after viral infection, a full-length cDNA of TLR3 (GrTLR3) with a splice variant (GrTLR3s) was identified by homologous cloning and RACE techniques. The antiviral effector molecule Mx gene was cloned and partially sequenced. The mRNA expression levels of GrTLR3, GrTLR3s, and Mx were studied in different tissues before and after virus infection by real-time quantitative RT-PCR. The transcripts of all three genes in liver were significantly increased following GCRV infection (P < 0.05). The mRNA levels in liver were upregulated at 24 h post-injection for GrTLR3 and GrTLR3s, and at 12 h for Mx. The upregulated expression levels were several folds for GrTLR3s, tens of folds for GrTLR3, and hundreds of folds for Mx. By semi-quantitative RT-PCR, GrTLR3 and Mx expressed at all the developmental stages, whereas GrTLR3s could only be detected at later developmental stages. Using RNAi and transgenic techniques, GrTLR3 mediated Mx expression but GrTLR3s did not. The time-dependent upregulation of receptor and effector, and the Mx over-expression dependent on TLR3, indicated that GrTLR3 regulated Mx expression in viral infection through a configuration change in rare minnow, and its splice variant did not contribute to the process.
