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

Dendritic cells (DCs) are important targets for dengue virus (DENV) infection and play a significant role in the early immune response. Antiviral effects of iminosugars against DENV in primary cells have been demonstrated previously in monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMΦs). Given the important role played by DCs in innate immune defense against DENV, the antiviral effects of three deoxynojirimycin (DNJ) derivatives (NN-DNJ, EOO-DNJ and 2THO-DNJ) and a deoxygalactonojirimycin (DGJ) negative control were evaluated in DENV-infected primary human monocyte-derived immature DCs (imDCs). DNJ- but not DGJ-derivatives elicited antiviral activity in DENV-infected imDCs, similar to that observed in MDMΦs. The DNJ-derivatives inhibited DENV secretion in a dose-dependent manner. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) α-glucosidase I inhibition by DNJ-derived iminosugars, at concentrations of 3.16 μM, correlated with a reduction in the specific infectivity of virions that were still secreted, as well as a reduction in DENV-induced tumour necrosis factor alpha secretion. This suggests iminosugar-mediated ER α-glucosidase I inhibition may give rise to further benefits during DENV infection, beyond the reduction in viral secretion associated with ER α-glucosidase II inhibition.
