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

After entry into the nucleus, herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA is coated with repressive proteins and becomes the site of assembly of nuclear domain 10 (ND10) bodies. These small (0.1-1 μM) nuclear structures contain both constant [e.g., promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML), Sp100, death-domain associated protein (Daxx), and so forth] and variable proteins, depending on the function of the cells or the stress to which they are exposed. The amounts of PML and the number of ND10 structures increase in cells exposed to IFN-β. On initiation of HSV-1 gene expression, ICP0, a viral E3 ligase, degrades both PML and Sp100. The earlier report that IFN-β is significantly more effective in blocking viral replication in murine PML(+/+) cells than in sibling PML(-/-) cells, reproduced here with human cells, suggests that PML acts as an effector of antiviral effects of IFN-β. To define more precisely the function of PML in HSV-1 replication, we constructed a PML(-/-) human cell line. We report that in PML(-/-) cells, Sp100 degradation is delayed, possibly because colocalization and merger of ICP0 with nuclear bodies containing Sp100 and Daxx is ineffective, and that HSV-1 replicates equally well in parental HEp-2 and PML(-/-) cells infected at 5 pfu wild-type virus per cell, but poorly in PML(-/-) cells exposed to 0.1 pfu per cell. Finally, ICP0 accumulation is reduced in PML(-/-) infected at low, but not high, multiplicities of infection. In essence, the very mechanism that serves to degrade an antiviral IFN-β effector is exploited by HSV-1 to establish an efficient replication domain in the nucleus.
