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

Vaccinia virus dissemination relies on the recruitment of the nucleation promoting factor N-WASP underneath cell-associated extracellular virus (CEVs) and subsequent recruitment and activation of the ARP2/3 complex, a major actin nucleator of the host cell. We have recently discovered that, in addition to the N-WASP/ARP2/3 pathway, vaccinia actin-based motility also relies on the small GTPase Rac1 and its downstream effector the formin-type actin nucleator FHOD1. Here we discuss the potential signaling mechanisms supporting the integration of the N-WASP/ARP2/3 and Rac1/FHOD1 pathways. We suggest the existence of a receptor tyrosine kinase family member that would integrate the Src-dependent activation of the N-WASP/ARP2/3 pathway and the GTP exchange factor-dependent activation of the Rac1/FHOD1 pathway.
