Making it to the synapse: measles virus spread in and among neurons.
Review in Current topics in microbiology and immunology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 papers.
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.
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
Measles virus (MV) is one of the most transmissible microorganisms known, continuing to result in extensive morbidity and mortality worldwide. While rare, MV can infect the human central nervous system, triggering fatal CNS diseases weeks to years after exposure. The advent of crucial laboratory tools to dissect MV neuropathogenesis, including permissive transgenic mouse models, the capacity to manipulate the viral genome using reverse genetics, and cell biology advances in understanding the processes that govern intracellular trafficking of viral components, have substantially clarified how MV infects, spreads, and persists in this unique cell population. This review highlights some of these technical advances, followed by a discussion of our present understanding of MV neuronal infection and transport. Because some of these processes may be shared among diverse viruses, comparisons are made to parallel studies with other neurotropic viruses. While a crystallized view of how the unique environment of the neuron affects MV replication, spread, and, ultimately, neuropathogenesis is not fully realized, the tools and ideas are in place for exciting advances in the coming years.
