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

Viral nonstructural proteins, which are not packaged into virions, are essential for the replication of most viruses. Reovirus, a nonenveloped, double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) virus, encodes three nonstructural proteins that are required for viral replication and dissemination in the host. The reovirus nonstructural protein σNS is a single-stranded RNA (ssRNA)-binding protein that must be expressed in infected cells for production of viral progeny. However, the activities of σNS during individual steps of the reovirus replication cycle are poorly understood. We explored the function of σNS by disrupting its expression during infection using cells expressing a small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting the σNS-encoding S3 gene and found that σNS is required for viral genome replication. Using complementary biochemical assays, we determined that σNS forms complexes with viral and nonviral RNAs. We also discovered, using
