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 organization, synthesis, and phosphorylation of vimentin were studied at various times after infection of monkey kidney cells with simian virus 40. Late after infection (between 36 and 48 h postinfection) there is a dramatic reduction in vimentin synthesis that is paralleled by a specific disruption of the intermediate filament network. At the same time there is no apparent alteration of the organization or the synthesis of the actin-containing filaments and of the microtubules. The inhibition of vimentin synthesis is also reflected by the level of vimentin mRNA activity in the infected cells, as assayed in a cell-free in vitro translation system, and vimentin mRNA concentration as revealed by RNA blot hybridization to cloned vimentin cDNA. The level of vimentin phosphorylation also decreases dramatically but at a much earlier time after infection (between 14 and 24 h postinfection), when mitosis in the infected cells is blocked. Although the decrease in vimentin synthesis in simian virus 40-infected cells is paralleled by the alterations in the organization of the intermediate filament network, the phosphorylation of vimentin correlates with the cell cycle, as it does in other systems. A possible feedback control mechanism of vimentin synthesis by alterations in the organization of the intermediate filament network is discussed.
