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

Like other negative-strand RNA viruses (NSVs) such as influenza and rabies, vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) has a three-layered organization: a layer of matrix protein (M) resides between the glycoprotein (G)-studded membrane envelope and the nucleocapsid, which is composed of the nucleocapsid protein (N) and the encapsidated genomic RNA. Lack of in situ atomic structures of these viral components has limited mechanistic understanding of assembling the bullet-shaped virion. Here, by cryoEM and sub-particle reconstruction, we have determined the in situ structures of M and N inside VSV at 3.47 Å resolution. In the virion, N and M sites have a stoichiometry of 1:2. The in situ structures of both N and M differ from their crystal structures in their N-terminal segments and oligomerization loops. N-RNA, N-N, and N-M-M interactions govern the formation of the capsid. A double layer of M contributes to packaging of the helical nucleocapsid: the inner M (IM) joins neighboring turns of the N helix, while the outer M (OM) contacts G and the membrane envelope. The pseudo-crystalline organization of G is further mapped by cryoET. The mechanism of VSV assembly is delineated by the network interactions of these viral components.
