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

Ebola virus (EBOV) is a highly pathogenic virus with human case fatality rates of up to 90%. EBOV uses transcriptional editing to express three different glycoproteins (GPs) from its GP gene: soluble GP (sGP), GP, and small sGP (ssGP). The molecular ratio of unedited to edited mRNA is about 70% (sGP): 25% (GP): 5% (ssGP), indicating that sGP is produced more abundantly than GP. While the presence of sGP has been confirmed in the blood during human EBOV infection, there is no report about its expression dynamics. In this study, we developed an EBOV-sGP-specific sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using two different available antibodies and tested several animal serum samples to determine the concentration of sGP. EBOV-sGP was detected in nonhuman primate serum samples as early as 4 days after EBOV infection, correlating with RT-qPCR positivity. This ELISA might be further developed into a diagnostic tool for detection of EBOV in patients. Furthermore, this study provides insights into the expression dynamics of sGP during infection, which are important to decipher the function that sGP plays during infection.
