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

A high-throughput antiviral agent screening system called the fluorescence-based local lesion inspection assay (FLLIA) has been developed. In this assay, leaves were mechanically inoculated with an engineered virus expressing a fluorescent protein. One half of each leaf was treated with a test chemical and the other half was treated with a buffer solution. The number and size of viral infection lesions were then imaged and quantified. A reduction in the number of viral infection lesions and/or decreased fluorescence intensity in the chemically treated group suggests a replication inhibition activity, while a reduction in the size of fluorescent lesions indicates a movement inhibition activity. This simple method can efficiently identify antiviral agents and primarily differentiate their action mechanisms. A step-by-step protocol of FLLIA was provided in this chapter.
