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

In the past three years, remarkable discoveries have added three new human polyomaviruses (KI virus (KIV), WU virus (WUV) and Merkel cell virus (MCV)) to a class that previously had only two disease-causing members (BK virus (BKV) and JC virus (JCV)) identified. Two monkey polyomaviruses, simian virus (SV)40 and B-cell lymphotropic polyomavirus (LPV) are also present in humans. KIV and WUV lack the agnoprotein coding sequence and regulatory micro (mi)RNA clusters of BKV, JCV and SV40. MCV lacks the agnoprotein sequence but generates miRNAs. KIV, WUV and MCV are all widespread in humans. Although they have distinctive tissue tropisms, all these viruses are probably acquired in childhood. Of these viruses, only MCV has thus far been strongly linked to cancer. Marshalled evidence from diverse sources implicates MCV as an etiological agent of Merkel cell carcinoma. This review compares the structural features of the new and previously known polyomaviruses, with the aim of identifying approaches to molecular pathology.
