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

In recent years, the eIF4E protein family has been actively studied as one of the major susceptibility factors for Solanaceae plants in relation to potyvirus infections. This makes eIF4E an attractive target for genome editing to generate resistant varieties. The viral protein VPg interacts with eIF4E family proteins. Measuring the in vitro affinity of VPg for different eIF4E isoforms has traditionally been difficult. The main reason for this is the high aggregation propensity of VPg. To overcome this, we used protein engineering to generate a chimeric construct based on a fluorescent protein. This approach greatly facilitated the measurement of affinity between two proteins using surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Our results confirm that the α1-α2 hairpin of PVY VPg is involved in complex formation with eIF4E. These findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanism of this protein-protein interaction.
