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

Most members of the genus Orthonairovirus, represented by Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus and Nairobi sheep disease virus, are tick-borne, and some have become a public health concern in recent years. Here, we report the isolation and genetic and biological characterization of a new orthonairovirus, designated as "Iwanai Valley virus" (IWVV), from Ixodes ovatus ticks in Hokkaido, Japan. The amino acid sequence of the viral nucleoprotein (NP) was found to be 34-45% identical to those of known orthonairoviruses. Phylogenetic analysis based on amino acid sequences of the viral NP revealed that IWVV is closely related to human-pathogenic tick-borne orthonairoviruses, including Songling virus, Tacheng tick virus 1, and Yezo virus, which were recently discovered in East Asia. BHK-21 (Syrian hamster kidney), Vero (African green monkey kidney), SW-13 (human adrenal adenocarcinoma), HuH-7 (human hepatocellular carcinoma), and ISE6 (Ixodes scapularis tick embryo) cells were found to be susceptible to IWVV infection. Notably, several human-derived cell lines supported efficient replication of the virus. Our findings provide new insights into the diversity, evolutionary dynamics, and geographical distribution of orthonairoviruses in East Asia.
