Visualisation and analysis of hepatitis C virus non-structural proteins using super-resolution microscopy.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA replication occurs in the cytosol of infected cells within a specialised membranous compartment. How the viral non-structural (NS) proteins are associated and organised within these structures remains poorly defined. We employed a super-resolution microscopy approach to visualise NS3 and NS5A in HCV infected cells. Using single molecule localisation microscopy, both NS proteins were resolved as clusters of localisations smaller than the diffraction-limited volume observed by wide-field. Analysis of the protein clusters identified a significant difference in size between the NS proteins. We also observed a reduction in NS5A cluster size following inhibition of RNA replication using daclatasvir, a phenotype which was maintained in the presence of the Y93H resistance associated substitution and not observed for NS3 clusters. These results provide insight into the NS protein organisation within hepatitis C virus RNA replication complexes and the mode of action of NS5A inhibitors.
