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 fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) caused by the SFTS virus (SFTSV) is an emerging disease in East Asia with a fatality rate of up to 30%. However, the viral-host interaction of SFTSV remains largely unknown. The heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90) family consists of highly conserved chaperones that fold and remodel proteins and has a broad impact on the infection of many viruses. Here, we showed that Hsp90 is an important host factor involved in SFTSV infection. Hsp90 inhibitors significantly reduced SFTSV replication, viral protein expression, and the formation of inclusion bodies consisting of nonstructural proteins (NSs). Among viral proteins, NSs appeared to be the most reduced when Hsp90 inhibitors were used, and further analysis showed that their translation was affected. Co-immunoprecipitation of NSs with four isomers of Hsp90 showed that Hsp90 β specifically interacted with them. Knockdown of Hsp90 β expression also inhibited replication of SFTSV. These results suggest that Hsp90 β plays a critical role during SFTSV infection and could be a potential target for the development of drugs against SFTS.
