Cell surface RNA virus nucleocapsid proteins: a viral strategy for immunosuppression?
Review in Npj viruses, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Nucleocapsid protein (N), or nucleoprotein (NP) coats the genome of most RNA viruses, protecting and shielding RNA from cytosolic RNAases and innate immune sensors, and plays a key role in virion biogenesis and viral RNA transcription. Often one of the most highly expressed viral gene products, N induces strong antibody (Ab) and T cell responses. N from different viruses is present on the infected cell surface in copy numbers ranging from tens of thousands to millions per cell, and it can be released to bind to uninfected cells. Surface N is targeted by Abs, which can contribute to viral clearance via Fc-mediated cellular cytotoxicity. Surface N can modulate host immunity by sequestering chemokines (CHKs), extending prior findings that surface N interferes with innate and adaptive immunity. In this review, we consider aspects of surface N cell biology and immunology and describe its potential as a target for anti-viral intervention.
