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

Siglec-1, also known as sialoadhesin (Sn) or CD169, is a product of the SIGLEC1 gene. A large body of work performed on cell culture systems concludes that Siglec-1 is a primary receptor for porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) isolates in the genotype 1 or PRRSV-1 group. In this study, primary cultures of PAMs from SIGLEC-1 knockout (KO) pigs showed resistance to infection using both PRRSV-1 and PRRSV-2 isolates, which is consistent with previous observations. However, infection of KO and WT pigs with a PRRSV-1 isolate, SD01-08, resulted in viremia in both groups. Interestingly, virus nucleic acid levels in sera were significantly greater in the KO pigs at 21 and 28 days after infection. Mean virus load, calculated as area under the viremia curve over the infection period, was also significantly greater for the KO group. At the level of the pig, Siglec-1 as a receptor for PRRSV may not be biologically relevant. The increased viremia observed for the KO pigs may reflect a role for Siglec-1 in the regulation of the immune response to PRRSV-1.
