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

Dengue virus (DENV), the causative agent of dengue fever and severe dengue, exists as four antigenically different serotypes. These serotypes are further classified into genotypes and have varying degrees of pathogenicity. The 5' and 3' ends of the genomic RNA play a critical role in the viral life cycle. A global scale study of the RNA structural variation among the sero- and genotypes was carried out to correlate RNA structure with pathogenicity. We found that the GC rich stem and rigid loop structure of the 5' end of the genomic RNA of DENV 2 differs significantly from the others. The observed variation in base composition and base pairing may confer structural and functional advantage in highly virulent strains. This variation in the structure may influence the ease of cyclization and recruitment of viral RNA polymerase, NS5 RdRp, thereby affecting the pathogenicity of these strains.
