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

Porcine circovirus 3 (PCV3) has been detected in major pig-producing countries around the world since its first report in the US in 2016. Most current studies have focused on epidemiological investigations and detection methods of PCV3 because of lack of live virus strains for research on its pathogenesis in porcine cells or even in pigs. We constructed a recombinant plasmid pCMV-Cap carrying the PCV3 orf2 gene to investigate the effects of capsid (Cap) protein expression on autophagic response in human embryonic kidney cell line 293T (HEK293T). We demonstrate that PCV3 Cap protein induced complete autophagy shown as formation of autophagosomes and autophagosome-like vesicles as well as LC3-II conversion from LC3-I via inhibiting phosphorylation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) in HEK293T cells. The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is also involved in the autophagy process. These findings provide insight for further exploration of PCV3 pathogenetic mechanisms in porcine cells.
