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

Defective interfering (DI) RNAs, helper virus-dependent deletion mutant RNAs derived from the parental viral genomic RNA during replication, have been described for most RNA virus taxonomic groups. We now report that DI RNA production in the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, persistently infected by virulence-attenuating positive sense RNA hypoviruses, depends on one of two host dicer genes, dcl-2. We further report that nonviral sequences that are rapidly deleted from recombinant hypovirus RNA virus vectors in wild-type and dicer gene dcl-1 deletion mutant strains are stably maintained and expressed in the Deltadcl-2 mutant strain. These results establish a requirement for dcl-2, the C. parasitica dicer gene responsible for antiviral defense and generation of virus-derived small interfering RNAs, in DI RNA production and recombinant virus vector RNA instability.
