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 reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a global health problem for pigs. PRRSV is highly destructive and responsible for significant losses to the swine industry. Vaccines are available but incapable of providing adequate and long-term protection. As a result, effective and safe strategies are urgently needed to combat the virus. The scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain 5 (SRCR5) in porcine CD163, non-structural protein 4 (Nsp4), and Nsp10 are known to play significant roles in PRRSV infection and disease development. Therefore, we targeted these proteins to identify multi-target antiviral compounds. To identify potent inhibitors, molecular docking of neem phytochemicals was conducted; three compounds [7-deacetyl-7-oxogedunin (CID:1886), Kulactone (CID:15560423), and Nimocin (CASID:104522-76-1)] were selected based on the lowest binding energy and multi-target inhibitory nature. The efficacy and safety of the selected compounds were revealed through the pharmacokinetics analysis and toxicity assessment. Moreover, 100 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was performed to evaluate the stability and dynamic behavior of target proteins and their docked complexes with selected compounds. Besides, molecular mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann surface area method was used to estimate the binding free energy of each protein-ligand complex obtained from the MD simulations and validate the affinities of selected compounds to target proteins. Based on our analysis, we concluded that the identified multi-target compounds can be utilized as lead compounds for the development of natural drugs against PRRSV. If further validated in clinical studies, these compounds can be used individually or in combination against the virus.
