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 neutralization epitopes of the outer capsid protein VP7 of a porcine group A rotavirus were studied by using neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (N-MAbs). Six N-MAbs which were specific for the VP7 protein of the Gottfried strain of porcine rotavirus (serotype G4) were used for analyzing the antigenic sites of VP7. Three different approaches were used for this analysis: testing the serological reactivity of each N-MAb against different G serotypes of human and animal rotaviruses, analyzing N-MAb-resistant viral antigenic variants, and performing a nucleotide sequence analysis of the VP7 gene of each of the viral antigenic variants generated. From the serological analyses, three different reactivity patterns were recognized by plaque reduction virus neutralization and cell culture immunofluorescence tests. A single MAb (RG36H9) reacted with animal rotavirus serotypes G3 and G4 but not with human serotypes G3 and G4. The MAb 57/8 (D. A. Benfield, E. A. Nelson, and Y. Hoshino, p. 111, in Abstr. VIIth Internat. Congr. Virol., 1987, and E. R. Mackow, R. D. Shaw, S. M. Matsui, P. T. Vo, D. A. Benfield, and H. B. Greenberg, Virology 165:511-517, 1988) reacted with animal and human rotavirus serotypes G3 and G4 and also with human serotype G9 and bovine serotype G6. The other four MAbs reacted only with the porcine rotavirus serotype G4. The epitope defined by MAb 57/8 and the epitope defined by the other five MAbs appeared to be partially overlapping or close to each other, as identified by viral antigenic variant analysis. However, data from nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequence analyses of the VP7 of each of the viral antigenic variants showed that these two epitopes constituted a large, single neutralization domain.
