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

Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection can result in steatosis, a condition displaying aberrant accumulation of neutral lipid vesicles, the component of lipid droplets (LDs), which are essential for HCV assembly. However, the interplay between HCV infection and steatosis remains unclear. Here, we show that HCV-infected cells have higher levels of CD2-associated protein (CD2AP), which plays two distinct, yet tightly linked, roles in HCV pathogenesis: Elevated CD2AP binds to nonstructural protein 5A (NS5A) and participates in the transport of NS5A to LDs to facilitate viral assembly; Up-regulated CD2AP also interacts with casitas B-lineage lymphoma (b) (Cbl/Cbl-b) E3 ligases to degrade insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1), which, in turn, disrupts insulin signaling and increases LD accumulation through the IRS1/protein kinase B (Akt)/adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) signaling axis to accommodate viral assembly. In the HCV-infected mouse model, CD2AP expression is up-regulated during the chronic infection stage and this up-regulation correlates well with liver steatosis. Importantly, CD2AP up-regulation was also detected in HCV-infected human liver biopsies showing steatosis compared to non-HCV-infected controls. Conclusion: CD2AP is indicated as a protein up-regulated by HCV infection, which, in turn, stimulates HCV propagation and steatosis by disrupting insulin signaling; targeting CD2AP may offer an opportunity for alleviating HCV infection and its associated liver pathology.
