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

While chronic hepatitis B remains a global public health problem, the detailed spatiotemporal dynamics of the key molecular events leading to the multiplication and egress of hepatitis B virus (HBV) are still largely unclear. Previously, we developed a chromogenic in situ hybridization assay for detection of HBV RNA, DNA and covalently closed circular DNA in clinical liver biopsies. Here, we report the establishment of a fluorescent in situ hybridization method for the visualization of HBV RNA, HBV core particle DNA and intranuclear DNA in a tetracycline-inducible HBV replication system (HepAD38) and a de novo infection system (HepG2-NTCP). Using 3D-STORM (three-dimensional stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy), we were able to obtain images of HBV RNA and DNA with improved spatial resolution allowing in-depth analyses of key virological events within complex subcellular compartments. Taken together, these techniques should facilitate a deeper understanding of the molecular events of the HBV life cycle and shed new light on the intricate mechanisms of virus-host interactions.
