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

backgroundCanine circovirus (CanineCV) is a single-stranded circular DNA virus that infects domestic and wild canids in many countries. CanineCV is associated with gastroenteritis and diarrhea, respiratory disease, and generalized vasculitis leading to a fatal event. The Capsid protein (Cap) is a structural protein of the virus which has high genetic variability and plays a role in the canine immune response. In this study, we cloned the full-length CanineCV Capsid gene (Cap). In-silico analyses were used to explore the genomic and amino acid variability and natural selection acting on the Cap gene. The immune relevance for T-cell and B-cell epitopes was predicted by the immunoinformatic approach.

resultsAccording to the Cap gene, our results showed that CanineCV was separated into five phylogenetic groups. The obtained CanineCV strain from this study was grouped with the previously discovered Thai strain (MG737385), as supported by a haplotype network. Entropy analyses revealed high nucleotide and amino acid variability of the Capsid region. Selection pressure analysis revealed four codons at positions 24, 50, 103, and 111 in the Cap protein evolved under diversifying selection. Prediction of B-cell epitopes exhibited four consensus sequences based on physiochemical properties, and eleven peptide sequences were predicted as T-cell epitopes. In addition, the positive selection sites were located within T-cell and B-cell epitopes, suggesting the role of the host immune system as a driving force in virus evolution.

conclusionsOur study provides knowledge of CanineCV genetic diversity, virus evolution, and potential epitopes for host cell immune response.
