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

Nipah virus (NiV), a highly pathogenic zoonotic paramyxovirus, forms two distinct types of membrane-less organelles called inclusion bodies (IBs): cytosolic IBs, which serve as sites of viral RNA synthesis, and those beneath the plasma membrane (IB-PMs), which function in viral particle assembly and budding. We identified the essential domains of the NiV nucleocapsid (N) and phospho (P) proteins required for the formation of cytosolic IB-like structures with liquid-like properties. Dual-site interactions between the N- and C-terminal regions of the N and P proteins were necessary for generating these liquid organelles. In contrast, the matrix protein, along with the N and P proteins, was indispensable for the formation of IB-PM-like structures with low internal fluidity. These findings demonstrate that NiV employs specific protein-protein interactions to generate spatially and functionally distinct IBs, providing new insight into the molecular mechanisms governing viral RNA synthesis and particle formation.
