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

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) establishes a persistent infection in the salivary glands and transmits to other hosts. Mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) is a well-characterized model for studying the mechanisms of host responses against CMV. The viral load in salivary glands has been measured traditionally because it has been considered to reflect the consequence of anti-virus responses by T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. However, the standard plaque assay is cumbersome and it is impossible to monitor sequentially the viral load in same host. Hence, the goal of this study was to develop a real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR)-based procedure to measure the viral load in oral lavage. This report demonstrates that the viral load in oral lavage correlates well with viral titers in the salivary glands. This method allows sequential quantitation of viral loads without sacrificing mice and provides a technique that will facilitate kinetic studies of anti-viral immunity mediated by the innate and adaptive immune systems.
