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

Pestiviruses like bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) are a threat to livestock. For pestiviruses, cytopathogenic (cp) and noncytopathogenic (noncp) strains are distinguished in cell culture. The noncp biotype of BVDV is capable of establishing persistent infections, which is a major problem in disease control. The noncp biotype rests on temporal control of viral RNA replication, mediated by regulated cleavage of nonstructural protein 2-3 (NS2-3). This cleavage is catalyzed by the autoprotease in NS2, the activity of which depends on its cellular cofactor, DNAJC14. Since this chaperone is available in small amounts and binds tightly to NS2, NS2-3 translated later in infection is no longer cleaved. As NS3 is an essential constituent of the viral replicase, this shift in polyprotein processing correlates with downregulation of RNA replication. In contrast, cp BVDV strains arising mostly by RNA recombination show highly variable genome structures and display unrestricted NS3 release. The functional importance of DNAJC14 for noncp pestiviruses has been established so far only for BVDV-1. It was therefore enigmatic whether replication of other noncp pestiviruses is also DNAJC14 dependent. By generating bovine and porcine DNAJC14 knockout cells, we could show that (i) replication of 6 distinct noncp pestivirus species (A to D, F, and G) depends on DNAJC14, (ii) the pestiviral replicase NS3-5B can assemble into functional complexes in the absence of DNAJC14, and (iii) all cp pestiviruses replicate their RNA and generate infectious progeny independent of host DNAJC14. Together, these findings confirm DNAJC14 as a pivotal cellular cofactor for the replication and maintenance of the noncp biotype of pestiviruses.
