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

The Zika virus (ZIKV) gained prominence as a significant global pathogen after the 2015-2016 outbreaks associated it with an increase in neurological complications in adults and congenital malformations. Different mechanisms have been proposed by which ZIKV may cross the blood-brain barrier and reach the central nervous system to cause neuroinflammation. Although ZIKV infection triggers a robust immune response, the virus has developed different strategies to escape it. Furthermore, although the virus is present in areas with cocirculation of other pathogenic agents, few studies have evaluated the cross-immune reactions and coinfection of ZIKV. Coinfections of ZIKV with other viruses, parasites, and bacteria are described. Such interactions can worsen infections and alter the immune response, imposing new therapeutic challenges and highlighting the need for more studies in the field. In this review, we discuss various aspects of ZIKV biology, focusing on the impacts of coinfections.
