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

Caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAE) is a chronic progressive infectious disease caused by caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) that seriously threatens the goat industry. Chronic infection and life-long multi-tissue inflammation are the typical features of the disease. Innate antiviral immunity is essential for the host defense system that rapidly recognizes and eliminates invading viruses. Interferon β (IFN-β) is important for innate immunity and regulates immunity against a broad spectrum of viruses. To investigate the details of the IFN-β response to CAEV infection, the effects of six viral proteins and the molecular mechanisms by which they affect IFN-β production were analyzed. Overexpression of DU and Vif promote virus proliferation and inhibit the production of IFN-β. qRT-PCR and luciferase reporter assays showed that overexpression of Vif inhibits the expression of luciferase under the control of the ISRE, NF-κB or IFN-β promoter but does not affect the expression of IFN-β activated by IRF3, indicating that Vif negatively regulates IFN-β production by affecting upstream signal transduction of IRF3. Amino acids 149-164 of Vif were found to be necessary for the inhibitory effect of IFN-β production. Our results indicate that CAEV evades surveillance and clearance by intracellular innate immunity by downregulating IFN-β production.
