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

backgroundNervous necrosis virus (NNV) is a bipartite positive-sense RNA virus that causes viral nervous necrosis disease in larval and juvenile marine fish. In its genome, the RNA1 segment encodes RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) for viral RNA synthesis, while RNA2 encodes coat protein for viral particle assembly. In addition, an RNA1-derived subgenomic RNA3 region encodes the non-structural B2 protein, which antagonizes host RNA interference mechanisms. However, the mechanisms of RNA3 transcription remain unclear.

methodsA DNA-based reverse genetic platform vector (pCMV-DRz) for recombinant (r) giant grouper (GG) NNV recovery was constructed. End sequences of GGNNV RNAs were determined by 5' rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) and/or circular RNA sequencing approach. Replication and transcription of viral RNAs in GGNNV-infected or mutant clones transfected grouper brain (GB) cells were detected by Northern blotting using anti-sense RNA DIG-labeling probes. Recombinant viral proteins were detected by using Western blotting or immunocytochemistry staining after GB cells transfected with pCMV-DRz-RNA1 or infected with rGGNNV. In addition, the viral kinetics of rGGNNV was determined using TCID

resultsIn the reverse genetic platform, high viral titer of rGGNNV (10

conclusionOur results suggest that NNV utilizes premature termination mechanism for subgenome RNA3 transcription and NNV RNAs expression is coordinately regulated by viral cis- and trans-RNA sequences.
