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

Bafilomycin A(1) is a specific inhibitor of the vacuolar-ATPase (V-ATPase), which is responsible for pH homeostasis of the cell and for the acidification of endosomes. Bafilomycin A(1) has been commonly used as a method of inhibition of infection by viruses known or suspected to follow the path of receptor-mediated endocytosis and low-pH-mediated membrane fusion. The exact method of entry for Sindbis virus, the prototype alphavirus, remains undetermined. To further investigate the role of the V-ATPase in Sindbis virus infection, the effects of bafilomycin A(1) on the infection of BHK and insect cells by Sindbis virus were studied. Bafilomycin A(1) was found to block the expression of a virus-encoded reporter gene in both infection and transfection of BHK cells. The inhibitory effects of bafilomycin A(1) were found to be reversible. The results suggest that in BHK cells in the presence of bafilomycin A(1), virus RNA enters the cell and is translated, but replication and proper folding of the product proteins requires the function of the V-ATPase. Bafilomycin A(1) had no significant effect on the outcome of infection in insect cells.
