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

aimTo determine the antiviral mechanism or target of oxymatrine against hepatitis B virus (HBV).

methodsHepG2.2.15 cells were incubated with culture medium containing 500 microg/mL of oxymatrine for 2 and 5 d. The surface antigen of HBV (HBsAg) and e antigen of HBV (HBeAg) in supernatant were determined by ELISA. HBV DNA in supernatant, and intracellular covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA), relaxed circular DNA (rcDNA) and pregenomic RNA (pgRNA) were quantified by specific real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or reverse transcription (RT)-PCR.

resultsTreatment with oxymatrine for 2 d and 5 d reduced the production of HBV by the cell line, as indicated by the decline of HBsAg (22.67%, t = 5.439, P = 0.0322 and 22.39%, t = 5.376, P = 0.0329, respectively), HBeAg (55.34%, t = 9.859, P = 0.0101 and 43.97%, t = 14.080, P = 0.0050) and HBV DNA (40.75%, t = 4.570, P = 0.0447 and 75.32%, t = 14.460, P = 0.0047) in the supernatant. Intracellular cccDNA was also markedly reduced by 63.98% (t = 6.152, P = 0.0254) and 80.83% (t = 10.270, P = 0.0093), and intracellular rcDNA by 34.35% (t = 4.776, P = 0.0413) and 39.24% (t = 10.050, P = 0.0097). In contrast, intracellular pgRNA increased by 6.90-fold (t = 8.941, P = 0.0123) and 3.18-fold (t = 7.432, P = 0.0176) after 500 microg/mL of oxymatrine treatment for 2 d and 5 d, respectively.

conclusionOxymatrine may inhibit the replication of HBV by interfering with the process of packaging pgRNA into the nucleocapsid, or inhibiting the activity of the viral DNA polymerase.
