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 host eIF4F translation initiation complex plays a critical role the translation of capped mRNAs. Although human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection increases the abundance and activity of the host eIF4F complex, the requirement for eIF4F components in HCMV replication and mRNA translation has not been directly tested. In this study, we found that decreasing the abundance or activity of eIF4F from the start of infection inhibits HCMV replication. However, as infection progresses, viral mRNA translation and replication becomes increasingly resistant to eIF4F inhibition. During the late stage of infection the association of representative immediate-early, early, and late mRNAs with polysomes was not affected by eIF4F disruption. In contrast, eIF4F inhibition decreased the translation of representative host eIF4F-dependent mRNAs during the late stage of infection. A global analysis of the translation efficiency of HCMV mRNAs during the late stage of infection found that eIF4F disruption had a minimal impact on the association of HCMV mRNAs with polysomes but significantly diminished the translation efficiency of eIF4F-dependent host transcripts. Together, our data show that the translation of host eIF4F-dependent mRNAs remains dependent on eIF4F activity during HCMV infection. However, during the late stage of infection the translation efficiency of viral mRNAs does not correlate with the abundance or activity of the host eIF4F complex.
