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

Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is a key pathogen of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in children under 6 years of age. The antiviral potency of antioxidant isochlorogenic acid C (ICAC) extracted from foods was evaluated in cellular and animal models. First, the cytotoxicity of ICAC on Vero cells was investigated. The viral plaques, cytopathic effects and yield induced by EV71 infection were obviously reduced by ICAC, which was consistent with the investigation of VP1 transcripts and protein expression. Moreover, the mortality, weight loss and limb paralysis of mice caused by EV71 challenge were remarkably relieved by ICAC injection, which was achieved through decreases in the viral load and cytokine secretion in the mouse brain. Further biochemical assays showed that ICAC modulated several antioxidant enzymes involved in reduced and oxidized glutathione (GSH and GSSG) homeostasis, including glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), resulting in restoration of the GSH/GSSG ratio and reactive oxygen species (ROS) level. Finally, the antiviral effects of ICAC were dose-dependently disrupted by BSO, a biosynthesis inhibitor of GSH. This study indicated that ICAC acted as an antioxidant and prevented EV71 infection by modulating the redox homeostasis of glutathione.
