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

Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) causes viral myocarditis and can ultimately result in dilated cardiomyopathy. There is no vaccine available for clinical use. Translation initiation of CVB3 RNA is directed by an internal ribosome entry site within the 5'-untranslated region. We have previously described that Sabin3-like mutation (U(473) to C) introduced in CVB3 genome led to a defective mutant with a serious reduction in translation efficiency. In the present study, we analyzed, in vitro, the effect of the Sabin3-like mutation on the binding affinity of RNA domain V to some standard translation initiation factors: eIF4G, eIF3b, and eIF4B by filter-binding assays and UV-crosslink assays. We have demonstrated that this single-nucleotide exchange impairs the binding affinity of these cellular factors within the mutant RNA. These data indicate how this decisive Sabin3-like mutation mediates viral translation attenuation. Taken together, these findings strongly suggest that the mutant strain could be considered a candidate for an attenuated CVB3 vaccine.
