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

Polyprotein processing has an important regulatory role in the life cycle of positive-strand RNA viruses. In the case of alphaviruses, sequential cleavage of the nonstructural polyprotein (ns-polyprotein) at three sites eventually yields four mature nonstructural proteins (nsPs) that continue working in complex to replicate viral genomic RNA and transcribe subgenomic RNA. Recognition of cleavage sites by viral nsP2 protease is guided by short sequences upstream of the scissile bond and, more importantly, by the spatial organization of the replication complex. In this study, we analyzed the consequences of the artificially accelerated processing of the Semliki Forest virus ns-polyprotein. It was found that in mammalian cells, not only the order but also the correct timing of the cleavage events is essential for the success of viral replication. Analysis of the effects of compensatory mutations in rescued viruses as well as
