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

Neuraminidase (NA) is a sialidase expressed on the surface of influenza A viruses that releases progeny viruses from the surface of infected cells and prevents viruses becoming trapped in mucus. It is a homotetramer, with each monomer consisting of a transmembrane region, a stalk, and a globular head with sialidase activity. We recently characterized two swine viruses of the pandemic H1N1 lineage, A/swine/Virginia/1814-1/2012 (pH1N1 IMPORTANCE: Neuraminidase (NA) is a sialidase that is one of the major surface glycoproteins of influenza A viruses and the target for the influenza drugs oseltamivir and zanamivir. NA is important as it releases progeny viruses from the surface of infected cells and prevents viruses becoming trapped in mucus. Mutations in the globular head domain that decrease enzymatic activity but confer resistance to NA inhibitors have been characterized; however, the importance of specific mutations in the stalk domain is unknown. We identified 66Y (N1 numbering), a highly conserved amino acid that was critical for the stability of the NA tetramer and, subsequently, for NA enzymatic activity.
