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

Inflammasomes play important roles in resisting infections caused by various pathogens. HSV-1 is a highly contagious virus among humans. The process by which HSV-1 particles bud from the nucleus is unique to herpes viruses, but the specific mechanism is still unclear. Here, we screened genes involved in HSV-1 replication. We found that TET3 plays an essential role in HSV-1 infection. TET3 recognizes the UL proteins of HSV-1 and, upon activation, can directly bind to caspase-1 to activate an ASC-independent inflammasome in the nucleus. The subsequent cleavage of GSDMD in the nucleus is crucial for the budding of HSV-1 particles from the nucleus. Inhibiting the perforation ability of GSDMD on the nuclear membrane can significantly reduce the maturation and spread of HSV-1. Our results may provide a new approach for the treatment of HSV-1 in the future.
