Role of ROCK signaling in virus replication.
Review in Virus research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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
Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) is a serine-threonine kinase and is a major downstream effector of the small GTPaseRhoA. Upon activation, Rho/ROCK cell signaling pathway regulates cell morphology, polarity, and cytoskeletal remodeling. Recent years have highlighted the role of ROCK signaling pathway in the replication of diverse group of viruses. Cell contractions and membrane blebbing induced by certain group of viruses is mediated via ROCK signaling and facilitates virus replication by sequestration of cellular factors and anchoring them at replication sites (viral factories). Besides, ROCK signaling also stabilizes the nascent viral mRNA for its efficient transcription and translation and, regulates trafficking of the viral proteins. In addition, ROCK signaling is also involved in modulating the immune response to viral infections. This review describes the regulation of virus replication by ROCK signaling with the basic aim of defining it as a target for the development of novel antiviral therapeutics.
