Viperin-taken down with a pinch of salt.
Article in EMBO reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
What to eat when you have a cold has always been the subject of much debate and advice, usually informed by very little science. However, in this issue of EMBO Reports, Yuan et al (2021) uncover an intriguing link between a high salt diet and a susceptibility to viral infection. Mice fed on a short-term high salt diet were found to carry a higher viral load than control mice fed a normal diet. The researchers trace this effect back to a salt-induced decrease in cellular levels of the antiviral protein, viperin. More generally, these studies provide further insights into the regulation of proteins involved in the cellular antiviral response.
