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
Feline calicivirus (FCV) icosahedral viral capsids are composed of dozens of structural subunits that rely on cellular chaperones to self-assemble in an orderly fashion. Here, we report that the heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibition significantly reduced FCV particle production, suggesting a role in the replicative cycle. We found that Hsp90 inhibition was not related to the synthesis or stability of the early proteins that translate from the gRNA nor to the minor capsid protein VP2 but with a reduction in the major capsid protein VP1 levels, both translated late in infection from the subgenomic RNAs. Reduction in VP1 levels was observed despite an augment of the leader of the capsid (LC)-VP1 precursor levels, from which the LC and VP1 proteins are produced after proteolytic processing by NS6/7. The direct interaction of VP1 with Hsp90 was observed in infected cells. These results suggest that upon release from the polyprotein precursor, VP1 becomes a client of Hsp90 and that this interaction is required for an efficient FCV replicative cycle.
