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

Members of the rodent subgroup of the genus Parvovirus exhibit lytic replication and spread in many human tumor cells and are therefore attractive candidates for oncolytic virotherapy. However, the significant variation in tumor tropism observed for these viruses remains largely unexplained. We report here that LuIII kills BJ-ELR 'stepwise-transformed' human fibroblasts efficiently, while MVM does not. Using viral chimeras, we mapped this property to the LuIII capsid gene, VP2, which is necessary and sufficient to confer the killer phenotype on MVM. LuIII VP2 facilitates a post-entry, pre-DNA-amplification step early in the life cycle, suggesting the existence of an intracellular moiety whose efficient interaction with the incoming capsid shell is critical to infection. Thus targeting of human cancers of different tissue-type origins will require use of parvoviruses with capsids that effectively make this critical interaction.
