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

The herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) latency-associated transcript (LAT) is abundantly expressed in latently infected trigeminal ganglionic sensory neurons. Expression of the first 1.5 kb of LAT coding sequences restores wild type reactivation to a LAT null HSV-1 mutant. The anti-apoptosis functions of the first 1.5 kb of LAT coding sequences are important for wild type levels of reactivation from latency. Two small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) contained within the first 1.5 kb of LAT coding sequences are expressed in trigeminal ganglia of latently infected mice, they cooperate to inhibit apoptosis, and reduce the efficiency of productive infection. In this study, we demonstrated that LAT sncRNA1 cooperates with the RNA sensor, retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I), to stimulate IFN-β promoter activity and NF-κB dependent transcription in human or mouse cells. LAT sncRNA2 stimulated RIG-I induction of NF-κB dependent transcription in mouse neuroblastoma cells (Neuro-2A) but not human 293 cells. Since it is well established that NF-κB interferes with apoptosis, we tested whether the sncRNAs cooperated with RIG-I to inhibit apoptosis. In Neuro-2A cells, both sncRNAs cooperated with RIG-I to inhibit cold-shock induced apoptosis. Double stranded RNA (PolyI:C) stimulates RIG-I dependent signaling; but enhanced cold-shock induced apoptosis. PolyI:C, but not LAT sncRNAs, interfered with protein synthesis when cotransfected with RIG-I, which correlated with increased levels of cold-shock induced apoptosis. LAT sncRNA1 appeared to interact with RIG-I in transiently transfected cells suggesting this interaction stimulates RIG-I.
