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 type 3 (PCV3) has been widely detected throughout the world since it was first discovered on pig farms in 2015. PCV3 is closely associated with cardiac and multisystem inflammation, respiratory disease, congenital tremors, myocarditis, diarrhea, encephalitis and neurologic disease, and periarteritis. However, there have been few reports on the relationship between PCV3 and inflammatory pathways. The NF-κB signaling pathway plays an important role in the defense against viral infection. Here, we demonstrate that the capsid protein (Cap) of PCV3 plays a key role in the activation of NF-κB signaling in HEK-293T cells. Furthermore, PCV3 Cap promotes the mRNA expression of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL6 and TNFα. In addition, PCV3 Cap promotes RIG-I and MDA5 mRNA expression in RIG-like receptor (RLR) signaling and MyD88 mRNA expression in Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling but does not influence TRIF mRNA expression in TLR signaling. These results show that PCV3 Cap activates NF-κB signaling, possibly through the RLR and the TLR signaling pathways. This work illustrates that PCV3 Cap activates NF-κB signaling and thus may provide a basis for the pathogenesis of PCV3 and the innate immunity of the host.
