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

Viruses must egress from the cells in which they have replicated to spread and propagate. Historically, viruses have been classified into enveloped and nonenveloped forms: Enveloped viruses exploit cellular membrane-trafficking pathways to egress while maintaining cell integrity, and nonenveloped viruses, i.e., those lacking a membrane around their capsids, lytically egress. Here, we make the compelling case that all animal and plant and many archaeal and bacterial viruses egress through nonlytic pathways. Most of these nonlytic pathways can be separated into those that enable viruses to spread without leaving the confines of cell bodies and those that traffic them to the extracellular space in enveloped membrane-bound forms. Nonlytic egress pathways bestow viruses with distinct transmission advantages including high multiplicity of infection, quality control over transmitting infectious units, and evasion of innate and adaptive antiviral immune defense mechanisms.
