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

Protein kinase R (PKR) is an interferon-induced antiviral protein activated by autophosphorylation in response to double strand DNA (dsRNA) and other stimuli. Activated PKR causes translation inhibition and apoptosis, and it contributes to proinflammatory responses, cell growth, and differentiation. Mouse adenovirus type 1 (MAV-1) counteracts PKR by causing its degradation via a viral protein, early region 4 open reading frame 6 (E4orf6). Degradation is dependent on E4orf6 binding to Cullin 2, a component of the MAV-1 E4orf6 ubiquitin ligase. We investigated the importance of E4orf6 for induction of PKR degradation by exploiting the ability to infect the natural host with the adenovirus MAV-1. First, we used a new PKR-deficient mouse strain, PKR-TKO. PKR-TKO mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) produced higher levels of MAV-1 upon infection than did wild-type (WT) MEFs. PKR-TKO mice had significantly reduced survival, and MAV-1 had a lower LD
