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

Viral proteins pUL16 and pUL21 are required for efficient nuclear egress of herpes simplex virus 2 capsids. To better understand the role of these proteins in nuclear egress, we established whether nuclear egress complex (NEC) distribution and/or function was altered in the absence of either pUL16 or pUL21. NEC distribution in cells infected with pUL16-deficient viruses was indistinguishable from that observed in cells infected with wild-type viruses. In contrast, NEC distribution was aberrant in cells infected with pUL21-deficient virus and, instead, showed some similarity to the aberrant NEC distribution pattern observed in cells infected with pUs3-deficient virus. These results indicated that pUL16 plays a role in nuclear egress that is distinct from that of pUL21 and pUs3. Higher-resolution examination of nuclear envelope ultrastructure in cells infected with pUL21-deficient viruses by transmission electron microscopy showed different types of nuclear envelope perturbations, including some that were not observed in cells infected with pUs3 deficient virus. The formation of the nuclear envelope perturbations observed in pUL21-deficient virus infections was dependent on a functional NEC, revealing a novel role for pUL21 in regulating NEC activity. The results of comparisons of nuclear envelope ultrastructure in cells infected with viruses lacking pUs3, pUL16, or both pUs3 and pUL16 were consistent with a role for pUL16 in advance of primary capsid envelopment and shed new light on how pUs3 functions in nuclear egress.
