Syncytial and Congregative Effects of Dengue and Zika Viruses on the
Article in Zoonoses (Shannon, Ireland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: Dengue viruses (DENV) and Zika viruses (ZIKV) are transmitted from human to human or from non-human primates to humans by mosquito biting, so the viral interaction with mosquito cells is one key step within the viral life cycle. Therefore, our objective is to know how DENV or ZIKV interacts with mosquito cells. Methods: Immunofluorescence assay and a direct visualization system are combined to monitor the syncytial or congregative effects of DENVs and ZIKVs on C6/36 cells. we studied the cytopathic effects of DENVs and ZIKVs on the mosquito cells, C6/36 which are widely used in the laboratory for the infections of DENV and ZIKV. Results: Our results show that all strains of DENV-1 and DENV-2, most DENV-4 and some DENV-3 strains caused syncytial effects on C6/36 cells, while some DENV-3 and DENV-4 strains, and all the tested ZIKV strains caused cell congregation after infection but no cell fusion. In addition, we detected a range of pH environments from 6.0 to 8.0 that support the virus-caused cell fusion and figured out that the optimal pH condition is 7.5 at which the viral production is also the best. Furthermore, viral replication may be required for DENV's syncytial effects on C6/36 cells because the UV-inactivated virus failed to cause cell fusion. Conclusion: Syncytial and congregative effects of DENV and ZIKV on the
