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

Frequent and high-dose administration of interferon to patients with viral hepatitis results in various side effects. In our previous study, a novel liver-targeting interferon (IFN-CSP) combining Plasmodium region I peptide with IFNα2b was successfully designed and expressed in the Escherichia coli expression systems. This targeting would target the IFNα2b specifically to the liver, thus reducing the adverse events. In the present study, we further investigated the anti-HBV effects and molecular mechanisms of recombinant IFN-CSP in HepG2.2.15 cell line. Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and HBe antigen (HBeAg) in the culture supernatants were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). HBV-DNA was measured by real-time quantitative PCR. HBV core protein was assayed by immunofluorescent and western blot analysis. The expressions of signal transducers and transactivator 1 (STAT1), STAT2, IFN regulatory factor 9 (IRF-9), and 2'-5'-oligoadenylate synthetase 1 (OAS1) were investigated by the reverse transcription PCR and western blot analysis. Results indicate IFN-CSP efficiently inhibited HBsAg and HBeAg secretion, HBV-DNA replication, and HBV core protein expression in HepG2.2.15 cells. The anti-HBV mechanisms involve activation of JAK-STAT signaling and increase of the anti-HBV protein OAS expression. IFN-CSP could be a good substitute for IFNα2b for anti-HBV treatment.
