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

Neural necrosis virus (NNV) of family Nodaviridae affect wide range of fish species with viral encephalopathy and retinopathy causing mass mortality up to 100%. Currently there is no effective treatment and depopulation is only suggested recommendation. New avenues and approach are required to control this harmful malady. In this study we developed an epitope-based vaccine (EBV), against NNV using computation approach. We have selected two conserved proteins RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) and capsid proteins. Based on more than ~ 1000 epitopes we selected six antigenic epitopes. These were conjugated to adjuvant and linker peptides to generate a full-length vaccine candidate. Biochemical structural properties were analyzed by Phyre2 server. ProtParam, Molprobity. Ramachandran plot results indicate that 98.7% residues are in a favorable region and 93.4% residues in the favored region. The engineered EBV binds to toll like receptor-5 (TLR5) an important elicitor of immune response. Further molecular docking by PatchDock server reveals the atomic contact energy (i.e. - 267.08) for the best docked model of EBV and TLR5 receptor. The molecular simulation results suggest a stable interaction; the RMSD and RMSF values are 1-4 Ǻ and 1-12Ǻ, respectively. Further we have suggested the best possible codon optimized sequence for its cloning and subsequent purification of the protein. Overall, this is a first report to suggest an in-silico method for generation of an EBV candidate against NNV. We surmise that the method and approach suggested could be used as a promising cure for NNVs.
