The genome-linked protein VPg of vertebrate viruses - a multifaceted protein.
Review in Current opinion in virology, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 66 papers.
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.
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
Several vertebrate positive-sense RNA viruses, namely the Picornaviridae and Caliciviridae have evolved to use a protein-primed mechanism of genome replication. This results in the covalent linkage of a virus encoded protein, VPg (viral protein genome-linked), to the 5' end of viral RNA. Recent studies have highlighted the pivotal role VPg plays in the life cycle of these viruses, which in the case of the Caliciviridae, includes a role in viral protein synthesis. This article provides an overview of the current knowledge of the functions of vertebrate RNA virus VPg proteins, illustrating their diverse function and the parallels they share with plant virus VPg proteins.
