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

Influenza A virus (IAV) is a major respiratory pathogen that causes seasonal and pandemic flu, being a threat to global health. Various viral and cellular factors have been characterized to support or limit IAV infection. Interleukin 16 (IL16) has been known as one of the blood signature biomarkers discriminating systemic inflammation due to viral infection vs. other etiologies. Here, we report that the level of IL16 was elevated in the serum samples, lung homogenates, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of IAV-infected mice. IL16 overexpression facilitated IAV replication. Conversely, loss of IL16 reduced the host susceptibility to IAV infection
