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

importanceHerpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) establishes lifelong latency in neuronal cells. Following a stressor, the virus reactivates from latency, virus is shed at the periphery and recurrent disease can occur. During latency, the viral lncRNA termed the latency-associated transcript (LAT) is known to accumulate to high abundance. The LAT is known to impact many aspects of latency though the molecular events involved are not well understood. Here, we utilized a human neuronal cell line model of HSV latency and reactivation (LUHMES) to identify the molecular-binding partners of the LAT during latency. We found that the LAT binds to both the cellular protein, TMEM43, and HSV-1 genomes in LUHMES cells. Additionally, we find that knockdown of TMEM43 prior to infection results in a decreased ability of HSV-1 to establish latency. This work highlights a potential mechanism for how the LAT facilitates the establishment of HSV-1 latency in human neurons.
