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

Transcriptional changes following varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection of cultured human neurons derived from embryonic stem cells were compared to those in VZV-infected human foreskin fibroblasts. Transcription of 340 neuronal genes significantly altered by VZV infection included 223 transcript changes unique to neurons. Strikingly, genes inhibiting apoptosis were upregulated in neurons, while proapoptotic gene transcription was increased in fibroblasts. These data are a basis for discovery of differences in virus-host interactions between these VZV targets.
