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

Us3, a serine/threonine kinase encoded by all alphaherpesviruses, plays diverse roles during virus infection, including preventing virus-induced apoptosis, facilitating nuclear egress of capsids, stimulating mRNA translation and promoting cell-to-cell spread of virus infection. Given this diversity, the full spectrum of Us3 function may not yet be recognized. We noted, in transiently transfected cells, that herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) Us3 disrupted promyelocytic leukemia protein nuclear bodies (PML-NBs). However, PML-NB disruption was not observed in cells expressing catalytically inactive HSV-2 Us3. Analysis of PML-NBs in Vero cells transfected with pseudorabies virus (PRV) Us3 and those in Vero cells infected with Us3-null or -repaired PRV strains indicated that PRV Us3 expression also leads to the disruption of PML-NBs. While loss of PML-NBs in response to Us3 expression was prevented by the proteasome inhibitor MG132, Us3-mediated degradation of PML was not observed in infected cells or in transfected cells expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-tagged PML isoform IV. These findings demonstrate that Us3 orthologues derived from distantly related alphaherpesviruses cause a disruption of PML-NBs in a kinase- and proteasome-dependent manner but, unlike the alphaherpesvirus ICP0 orthologues, do not target PML for degradation.
