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

During the long evolutionary process, viruses and hosts have engaged in a game of immune escape and viral clearance, resulting in an exquisite model of virus-host interaction. An appropriate animal model can help unravel the mysteries of this process. Owing to their susceptibility to multiple viruses, small size, high fecundity, low cost, ease of visualization, and efficient gene editing, zebrafish (Danio rerio) have recently emerged as a powerful vertebrate model system for studying virus-host interactions. In this chapter, we describe in detail the experimental protocols for analyzing virus-host interactions in a zebrafish model in which spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) is used as an example. These protocols include the generation of knockout zebrafish via CRISPR/Cas9 technology, methods for viral infection of zebrafish larvae or adults, analysis of in vivo viral resistance of host genes, analysis of host and viral gene expression in zebrafish larvae via qRT-PCR and Western blotting, and detection of host protein binding to viral proteins via immunoprecipitation. These experimental protocols provide an effective reference for studying virus-host interactions in a zebrafish model.
