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

We have studied the effect of adenovirus infection on the nuclear organization of splicing small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) in HeLa cells. In uninfected HeLa cells, snRNPs are widespread throughout the nucleoplasm but also are concentrated in specific nuclear structures, including coiled bodies, interchromatin granules, and perichromatin fibrils. We have used immunofluorescence microscopy to study the localization of splicing snRNPs relative to centers of viral DNA synthesis and accumulation identified with antiserum against the viral 72,000-molecular-weight single-stranded DNA-binding protein (72K protein). Splicing snRNPs were independently detected with both monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies specific for common snRNP antigens, snRNP-specific proteins, and the snRNA-specific 2,2,7-trimethylguanosine 5' cap structure. We have examined infected cells 2 to 24 h after infection, and, in the majority of these cells, we observed no colocalization of the snRNP and 72K-protein staining patterns. In the late phase, snRNPs were found to markedly concentrate in discrete clusters that were distinct from the centers of viral DNA synthesis and accumulation identified with anti-72K protein. We have treated cells with hydroxyurea at various times after infection to inhibit aspects of the virus infectious program. We have found that the accumulation of snRNP clusters is correlated with late gene expression rather than with DNA synthesis or early gene expression. Finally, we show that the late-phase snRNP clusters colocalize with a monoclonal antibody that primarily stains interchromatin granules. These results suggest that the centers of snRNP concentration in late-phase infected cells are likely to correspond to interchromatin granule clusters.
