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

The influenza A virus (IAV) poses a significant threat to public health. Thus, antiviral drug research is a hotspot for IAV. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), a bioactive metabolite of vitamin A, exhibits different effects on different subtypes of IAV. In this study, ATRA was found to inhibit canine influenza virus (CIV) replication in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) and mink lung cells. Furthermore, the transcriptomic analysis revealed that ATRA significantly upregulated keratin 27 (KRT27), a cytoskeletal protein not previously associated with antiviral immunity. Overexpression of KRT27 suppressed CIV replication, while its knockdown enhanced viral load. Mechanistically, ATRA and KRT27 promoted autophagy, counteracting CIV-mediated autophagy hijacking. Notably, ATRA's antiviral effect was species-specific, showing no inhibition in human BEAS-2B or A549 cells. These findings identify ATRA-induced KRT27 as a novel regulator of autophagy and innate immunity against CIV, offering a potential host-directed therapeutic strategy against influenza viruses.
