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

GP64 is the key membrane fusion protein of Group I baculovirus, and while the Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) GP64 contains a longer n-region (18 amino acid) of the signal peptide than does the Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV), the function of the n-region has not been determined. In this study, we first showed that n-region is required for membrane protein localization in BmN cells, then the transcriptome sequencing was conducted on proteins guided by different signal peptide regions, and the results were analyzed and validated by quantitative PCR and luciferase assays. The results indicated that 1049 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified among the different region of signal peptides and the control. With the n-region, the protein export pathway was upregulated significantly, the Wnt-1 signaling pathway was downregulated, and BiP was significantly activated by the GP64 full-length signal peptide. Furthermore, RNA interference on BiP efficiently increased luciferase secretion. These results indicate that the GP64 n-region plays a key role in protein expression and regulation.
