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

Virus-like particle (VLP) technology represents a promising approach for the creation of efficient vaccines and materials for use in nanotechnological applications. For construction of a new carrier for foreign protein sequences, the coat protein (CP) gene from potato virus Y (PVY) was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli cells. The PVY CP self-assembles into PVY-like particles, as demonstrated by electron microscopy analysis of purified VLP preparations. The PVY CP with an N-terminal insertion of a foreign epitope (preS1) or of a whole protein (rubredoxin) retains its ability to form filamentous particles, whereas adding a foreign sequence to the C-terminus of the PVY CP generates mostly unstructured protein aggregates. This new filamentous plant virus-derived VLP carrier accommodates a foreign protein sequence that is up to 71 amino acids in length on the VLP surface and can be produced in E. coli in preparative amounts. The PVY CP VLPs are stable in physiological conditions, but they are sensitive to EDTA, high salt, and extreme pH. The presence of the preS1 epitope decreases the stability of the chimeric PVY CP particles at elevated temperatures. Mice that are immunized with chimeric PVY CP particles carrying preS1 epitopes exhibit a strong anti-preS1 immune response, even in the absence of adjuvants.
