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

Human enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is a highly contagious virus, which causes respiratory tract infections. However, no effective vaccines are currently available for controlling EV-D68 infection. Here, we developed a reverse genetics system to recover EV-D68 minireplicons and infectious EV-D68 from transfected plasmids using the RNA polymerase I (Pol I) promoter. The EV-D68 minireplicons contained the luciferase reporter gene, which flanked by the non-coding regions of the EV-D68 RNA. The luciferase signals could be detected in cells after transfection and Pol I promoter-mediated luciferase signal was significantly stronger than that mediated by the T7 promoter. Furthermore, recombinant viruses were generated by transfecting plasmids that contained the genomic RNA segments of EV-D68, under the control of Pol I promoter into 293T cells or RD cells. On plaque morphology and growth kinetics, the rescued virus and parental virus were indistinguishable. In addition, we showed that the G394C mutation disrupts the viral 5'-UTR structure and suppresses the viral cap-independent translation. This reverse genetics system for EV-D68 recovery can greatly facilitate research into EV-D68 biology. Moreover, this system could accelerate the development of EV-D68 vaccines and anti-EV-D68 drugs.
