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

Nick Lennemann studies the intracellular interactions of viral and host proteins. In this mSphere of Influence article, he discusses his employment history and the mentors that promoted his training and transition to an independent research program focused on proteolytic determinants of virus infection. He highlights how "A novel interaction between dengue virus nonstructural protein 1 and the NS4A-2K-4B precursor is required for viral RNA replication but not for formation of the membranous replication organelle" by A. Płaszczyca, P. Scaturro, C. J. Neufeldt, M. Cortese, et al. (PLoS Pathog 15:e1007736, 2019, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.ppat.1007736) and "Species-specific disruption of STING-dependent antiviral cellular defenses by the Zika virus NS2B3 protease" by Q. Ding, J. M. Gaska, F. Douam, L. Wei, et al. (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 115: E6310-E6318, 2018, https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1803406115) demonstrate the importance of viral protease activity for the establishment of a productive intracellular environment for infection.
