APOBEC3G directly binds Hepatitis B virus core protein in cell and cell free systems.
Article in Virus research, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
APOBEC3G (A3G) is an intrinsic antiretroviral factor which can inhibit Hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication. This antiviral activity mainly depends on A3G incorporation into viral particles. However, the mechanisms of A3G packaging into HBV particles have not been well characterized. In this paper, we demonstrated that A3G interacted with the HBV core protein (HBc) directly in co-transfected HepG2 cells using the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) approach. In addition, we further found that this interaction did not require other factors in vitro using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology on BIAcore 3000. While cellular RNA or viral RNA was added to A3G protein solution before flow through the BIAcore chip, the interaction was not affected. In conclusion, these results suggest the possibility that A3G is incorporated into HBV viral particles via direct binding with HBc protein.
