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

backgroundNeuraminidase (NA) is one of the surface proteins of influenza A virus, which plays an important role in immunization against influenza infection and is recognized as an important therapeutic target. Genetic and antigenic changes and substitutions can influence the efficacy of vaccine and change viral sensitivity to NA inhibitors (NAIs). In this study, we performed phylogenetic and molecular analyses of NA changes in influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus, compared them with the corresponding vaccine strain, and examined drug resistance mutations in isolates from patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe complete sequence of NA genes from 34 pandemic H1N1 isolates (identified in 2009-2010, 2010-2011, and 2013) was determined and analyzed both genetically and antigenically. The phylogenetic tree was plotted relative to the corresponding vaccine strain, using MEGA6 software package, based on the maximum likelihood method and JTT matrix (bootstrap value of 1000).

resultsThe phylogenetic analysis of pandemic isolates showed 31 amino acid substitutions in NA genes, compared to the vaccine strain. Some of these substitutions (N248D, V241I, N369K, N44S, and N200S) were important in terms of phylogenetic relationship, while the rest (D103N, V106I, R130T, N200S, G201E, and G414R) influenced the antigenic indices of B-cell epitopes. The catalytic sites, framework sites, and N-glycosylation remained unchanged in the studied samples. Meanwhile, H275Y substitution, related to oseltamivir resistance, was detected in 3 isolates. The average nucleotide identity of NAs with the corresponding vaccine strain was 99.415%, 98.607%, and 98.075% in 2009-2010, 2010-2011, and 2012-2013, respectively.

conclusionIn this study, we provided basic information on the genetic and antigenic changes of NA genes in influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus from patients in 3 different seasons in Tehran, Iran. Considering the viral NAI resistance and changes in NA gene sequences of the isolates in comparison with the vaccine strain, further studies should be performed to monitor genetic changes in Iran. Moreover, the efficacy of vaccines should be examined.
