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
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus with an envelope. It-encoded non-structural protein 1α (nsp1α) plays a key role in evading host immune responses. Exploring the interaction between host factors and PRRSV nsp1α is crucial for understanding the mechanism of virus immune escape and virus control. Here, we constructed a cDNA library using porcine lung tissues and identified 33 potential host proteins interacting with viral nsp1α using yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) screening. These interactions were further analyzed using Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analysis. Confocal microscopy revealed that proteasome subunit beta type-4 (PSMB4), carnosine dipeptidase 2 (CNDP2) and poly(rC) binding protein 1 (PCBP1) colocalized with viral nsp1α. The interaction between PSMB4 and nsp1α was further confirmed by Y2H and co-immunoprecipitation. PRRSV infection did not affect PSMB4 expression in both Marc-145 cells and porcine alveolar macrophages (PAMs). Overexpression of PSMB4 reduced nsp1α protein levels in a dose-dependent manner and decreased the accumulation of both viral N and nsp1α proteins in the context of PRRSV infection, while its knockdown promoted PRRSV replication. These data suggest that PSMB4 is a host restriction factor for PRRSV. Structure prediction and truncated mutant assays found that S146 and M148 within the mature chain domain of PSMB4 were crucial for binding and degrading nsp1α. These findings suggest that PRRSV nsp1α interacts with host proteins, with PSMB4 specifically binding to degrade nsp1α, thereby inhibiting PRRSV replication.
