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

Dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) is an arthropod-borne deadly RNA human pathogen transmitted through the mosquito Aedes. The DENV-2 roots viral infection by facilitating entry with its envelope glycoprotein to the receptor protein Dendritic-cell-specific ICAM3-grabbing non-integrin (DC-SIGN) through membrane fusion. Here, an organizational path is reported for inhibiting the transition due to fusion activation and by blocking the residues of the DC-SIGN-E-Glyco protein complex through citrus limonoids with its antiviral effect. Based on lower binding affinity obtained with E-glycoprotein, and based on ADMET and drug-likeness study, limonin was selected as having effective interaction with DC-SIGN-E-glycoprotein complex in comparison to other citrus limonoids. The FTIR spectra performed with the limonin-E-glycoprotein sample provide evidence of hydrogen bond formation that indicates the formation of a strong limonin-E-glycoprotein conjugate. Further, the strong physical interaction between DC-SIGN and small limonin molecules in comparison to that of E-glyco with DC-SIGN assures the development of immunity against DENV-2.
