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

Rotavirus (RV) and norovirus (NoV) are enteric viruses responsible for acute gastroenteritis that require fucosylated histo-blood group antigens for infection in humans. How the interaction of these viruses with fucosylated glycans modulates infection is not well understood. Treatment of target cells with a bacterial α1,2 fucosidase enzyme reduced RV and NoV infection in vitro, but increased replication in vivo. Conversely, the fucosidase inhibitor 1-deoxyfuconojirimycin impaired viral replication in both models, highlighting the role of fucosidase activity in fucose-dependent enteric virus infection. This underscores the complexity of fucose interactions for these viruses and implicates fucosidase activity as a potential antiviral target for RV and NoV.
