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

Plus-strand RNA viruses are proficient at remodeling host cell membranes for optimal viral genome replication and the production of infectious progeny. These ultrastructural alterations result in the formation of viral membranous organelles and may be observed by different imaging techniques, providing nanometric resolution. Guided by confocal and electron microscopy, this study describes the generation of wide-field volumes using cryogenic soft-X-ray tomography (cryo-SXT) on SARS-CoV-2-infected human lung adenocarcinoma cells. Confocal microscopy showed accumulation of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and nucleocapsid (N) protein in compact perinuclear structures, preferentially found around centrosomes at late stages of the infection. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed accumulation of membranous structures in the vicinity of the infected cell nucleus, forming a viral replication organelle containing characteristic double-membrane vesicles and virus-like particles within larger vesicular structures. Cryo-SXT revealed viral replication organelles very similar to those observed by TEM but indicated that the vesicular organelle observed in TEM sections is indeed a vesiculo-tubular network that is enlarged and elongated at late stages of the infection. Overall, our data provide additional insight into the molecular architecture of the SARS-CoV-2 replication organelle.
