Evaluation of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Orthonairovirus AviTagged Nucleoprotein for Potential Application in Diagnosis

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
Background: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is an acute viral zoonotic disease, with a mortality rate of 30-50%. There is no approved vaccine or any specific antiviral treatment for CCHF; therefore, the rapid diagnosis seems to be crucial for both efficient supportive therapy and control of infection spread. In this study, the potency of recombinant nucleoprotein of virus expressed in prokaryotic system was investigated for diagnosis of the infection. Methods: The DNA sequence of complete nucleoprotein ORF was codon optimized based on E. coli codon usage and synthesized commercially. The gene was subcloned in pCA4 vector and expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3). Refolding and simultaneous purification of nucleoprotein were performed using protein folding liquid chromatography method. The recombinant nucleoprotein was analyzed by Western blotting, ELISA, immunofluorescence assay, and circular dichroism. Forty eight human samples, in three IgM positive and three negative control groups, were evaluated using recombinant nucleoprotein in a capture ELISA setting. Serum from healthy individuals, those suspected to viral hemorrhagic fevers, and positive samples of Chikungunya and Dengue were considered as negative controls. Results: The existence and structure of recombinant nucleoprotein were verified and confirmed. Capture IgM ELISA detected all positive samples (sensitivity of 100%), but none of the 25 negative samples was detected as positive (specificity of 100%). The test also detected all the included genotypes of virus. Discussion: Our recombinant nucleoprotein can be used in IgM capture ELISA for easy and efficient detection of CCHF in any lab in endemic regions.
