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

backgroundMuscovy duck reovirus (MDRV) causes high morbidity and mortality in Muscovy ducklings at 10 days old and can persist in an infected flock until the ducklings of 6 weeks old. It shares common physicochemical properties with avian reovirus (ARV) and differs in coding assignment and pathogenicity. The ARV p17 protein has been shown to trigger autophagy via activation multiple signaling pathways, which benefits virus replication. Since MDRV lacks the p17 protein, whether and how MDRV induces autophagy remains unknown. The aim of this study was to explore whether MDRV induces autophagy and which viral proteins are involved in MDRV-induced autophagy.

methodsThe autophagosome-like structures in MDRV-infected cells was observed under transmission electron microscopy. MDRV-induced autophagy was examined by analyzing the LC3-II level and phosphorylated form of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) by Western blot assays. The effects of 3-methyladenine, rapamycin, chloroquine on viral yields were measured with quantitative(q) real-time reverse transcription (RT)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and 50% tissue culture infective dose (TCID

resultsThe typical double-membrane vesicles containing cytoplasmic inclusions were visible in MDRV-infected immortalized chicken embryo fibroblast (DF-1) cells under transmission electron microscopy. Both primary Muscovy duck embryo fibroblasts (MDEF) and DF-1 cells infected with MDRV exhibited a significant increased levels of LC3-II accompanied with downregulation of phosphorylated form of mTOR, further confirming that MDRV is capable of inducing autophagy. Autophagy could be suppressed by 3-methylademine and induced by rapamycin and chloroquine. Furthermore, we found that σNS induces an increased levels of LC3-II, suggesting that the MDRV σNS protein is one of viral proteins involved in induction of autophagy. Both qRT-PCR and TCID

conclusionsThe MDRV σNS nonstructural protein is responsible for MDRV-induced autophagy and benefits virus replication.
