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

Avian metapneumovirus subgroup C (aMPV/C) is highly pathogenic to various avian species with acute respiratory tract clinicopathology and/or drops in egg production. Nucleolin (NCL), an important nucleolar protein, has been shown to regulate multiple viral replication and serve as a functional receptor for viral entry and internalization. Whether NCL is involved in aMPV/C pathogenesis is not known. In this study, we found that aMPV/C infection altered the subcellular localization of NCL in cultured cells. siRNA-targeted NCL resulted in a remarkable decline in aMPV/C replication in Vero cells. DF-1 cells showed a similar response after CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knock out of NCL during aMPV/C infection. Conversely, NCL overexpression significantly increased aMPV/C replication. Pretreatment with AS1411-a aptamer, a guanine (G)-rich oligonucleotide that forms four-stranded structures and competitively binding to NCL, decreased aMPV/C replication and viral titers in cultured cells. Additionally, we found that the aMPV/C fusion (F) protein specifically interacts with NCL through its central domain and that AS1411 disrupts this interaction, thus inhibiting viral replication. Taken together, these results reveal that the aMPV/C F protein interacts with NCL, which is employed by aMPV/C for efficient replication, thereby highlighting the strategic potential for control and therapy of aMPV/C infection.
