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

Virus-associated cancers account for more than 12 % of all the cancers. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects nearly 3 % of the population worldwide and has emerged as a major causative agent of liver disease with a big impact on public health. The HCV non-structural protein NS4A is a 54-amino-acid polypeptide that serves as an essential co-factor for the NS3 serine protease. We report here on a proteomic study to identify cellular proteins associated with NS4A. The results of this study show an association of three host cellular proteins with NS4A including two novel NS4A interacting partners. Our data provide evidence for complex involving NS4A with previously unreported cellular proteins including housekeeping protein GAPDH, and PI3P-5 K which is involved in cellular protein trafficking to nucleus. These novel associations add to the diversity of NS4A functions in relation to the virus infection and subsequent pathogenesis.
