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

objectiveTo establish a coronavirus (CoV) infection model using human nasal mucosa organoids for testing antiviral drugs and evaluate the feasibility of using human nasal mucosa organoids with viral infection as platforms for viral research and antiviral drug development.

methodsHuman nasal mucosa organoids were tested for susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 and HCoV-OC43 pseudoviruses. In a P3 laboratory, nasal mucosa organoids were infected with the original strain of SARS-CoV-2 and 4 variant strains, and the infection conditions were optimized. The viral loads in the culture supernatants were measured at different time points using RT-qPCR, and immunofluorescence assay was employed to localize SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein to determine the type of the infected cells. In the optimized nasal mucosa viral infection model, the antiviral effects of camostat and bergamot extract (which were known to inhibit SARS-CoV-2) were tested and the underlying molecular mechanisms were explored.

resultsIn the optimized nasal mucosa organoid models infected with SARS-CoV-2 and HCoV-OC43 pseudoviruses, the viral load in the culture supernatants increased significantly during the period of 2 to 24 h following the infection, which confirmed infection of the organoids by both of the pseudoviruses. The nasal mucosa organoids could be stably infected by the original SARS-CoV-2 strain and its 4 variant strains, validating successful establishment of the viral infection model, in which both camostat and bergamot extract exhibited dose-dependent antiviral effects.

conclusionsHuman nasal mucosa organoids with SARS-CoV-2 infection can serve as platforms for screening and testing antiviral drugs, particularly those intended for nasal administration.
