Generation of a GFP Reporter Akabane Virus with Enhanced Fluorescence Intensity by Modification of Artificial Ambisense S Genome.
Article in Viruses, 2019. 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
We previously generated a recombinant reporter Akabane virus expressing enhanced green fluorescence protein (eGFP-AKAV), with an artificial S genome encoding eGFP in the ambisense RNA. Although the eGFP-AKAV was able to detect infected cells in in vivo histopathological study, its fluorescent signal was too weak to apply to in vivo imaging study. Here, we successfully generated a modified reporter, eGFP/38-AKAV, with 38-nucleotide deletion of the internal region of the 5' untranslated region of S RNA. The eGFP/38-AKAV expressed higher intensity of eGFP fluorescence both in vitro and in vivo than the original eGFP-AKAV did. In addition, eGFP/38-AKAV was pathogenic in mice at a comparable level to that in wild-type AKAV. In the mice infected with eGFP/38-AKAV, the fluorescent signals, i.e., the virus-infected cells, were detected in the central nervous system using the whole-organ imaging. Our findings indicate that eGFP/38-AKAV could be used as a powerful tool to help elucidate the dynamics of AKAV in vivo.
