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

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) continues to evolve after its emergence. Given its importance in viral infection and vaccine development, mutations in the viral Spike gene have been studied extensively; however, the impact of mutations outside the Spike gene are poorly understood. Here, we report that a triple deletion (ΔSGF or ΔLSG) in nonstructural protein 6 (nsp6) independently acquired in Alpha and Omicron sublineages of SARS-CoV-2 augments nsp6-mediated antagonism of type-I interferon (IFN-I) signaling. Specifically, these triple deletions enhance the ability of mutant nsp6 to suppress phosphorylation of STAT1 and STAT2. A parental SARS-CoV-2 USA-WA1/2020 strain containing the nsp6 ΔSGF deletion (ΔSGF-WA1) shows reduced susceptibility to IFN-I treatment
