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

High levels of viremia and chemokines and cytokines underlie the progression of severe dengue disease. Dengue virus (DENV) preferentially infects peripheral blood monocytes, which secrete elevated levels of immunomediators in patients with severe disease. Further, DENV nonstructural proteins (NS) are capable of modifying intracellular signaling, including interferon inhibition. We demonstrate that peak secretions of immunomediators such as IL-6, IL-8, IP-10, TNFα or IFNγ in DENV-infected monocytes correlate with maximum virus production and NS4B and NS5 are primarily responsible for the induction of immunomediators. Furthermore, we demonstrate that sequential NS4AB processing initiated by the viral protease NS2B3(pro) and via the intermediate 2KNS4B significantly enhances immunomediator induction. While the 2K-signal peptide is not essential for immunomediator induction, it plays a synergistic role with NS4B. These data suggest that NS4B maturation is important during innate immune signaling in DENV-infected monocytes. Given similar NS4B topologies and polyprotein processing across flaviviruses, NS4B may be an attractive target for developing Flavivirus-wide therapeutic interventions.
