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

Coronaviruses (CoVs) are emerging pathogens that have been extensively studied over the last twenty years and can cause acute respiratory diseases in humans, as exemplified by the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. CoVs are also known for their importance in veterinary medicine and are responsible for severe pathologies in pets and livestock. These include feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV), which causes fatal disease in cats. In livestock, porcine CoVs such as transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV) and porcine epidemic diarrhoea virus (PEDV) are the causative agents of acute enteric disease in piglets, which has a high mortality rate and a significant impact on the pork industry. In addition, animal CoVs may represent zoonotic reservoirs. Therefore, efficient antiviral strategies are needed to inhibit the replication of CoVs that infect various animal species. Here, we synthesized twenty small-molecule ligands that target cyclophilins, a family of cellular chaperones hijacked by several viruses, including CoVs. We screened their antiviral activity against feline and porcine α-CoVs and identified F83233 as a potent inhibitor of FIPV, TGEV and PEDV replication at micromolar concentrations that was effective in feline, porcine, and simian cells. As cyclophilins are highly conserved among mammals, F83233 could be a promising antiviral to treat different animal and zoonotic CoVs.
