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 isolated hybrid baculoviruses of Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV) and Autographa californica NPV (AcNPV) capable of replicating in both BmN (not susceptible to AcNPV) and SF-21 (not susceptible to BmNPV) cells (A. Kondo and S. Maeda, J. Virol. 65:3625-3632, 1991). Repeated backcross infection of one of these recombinant isolates with AcNPV generated eh-AcNPV, a virus with restriction endonuclease patterns of genomic DNA nearly identical to those of AcNPV but capable of replicating in both BmN and SF-21 cells, i.e., host range expanded. Expanded host range viruses were also isolated following cotransfection of AcNPV DNA with eh-AcNPV DNA cleaved with either HindIII or PstI. Subsequent cotransfection of AcNPV DNA with plasmids from an eh-AcNPV DNA fragment library identified an 11-kbp HindIII fragment that could expand the host range of AcNPV. Subcloning and cotransfection analyses localized a 572-bp SacI-HindIII fragment within this 11-kbp fragment which could alone expand the host range of AcNPV. Mapping and nucleotide sequencing analysis revealed that this fragment was identical to the corresponding 572-bp fragment (BmScH) of BmNPV. Furthermore, this fragment originated from the coding region of the putative DNA helicase gene. Cotransfection of AcNPV DNA with BmScH also generated a host range-expanded virus, eh2-AcNPV. These results indicated that the expanded host range characteristics of eh2-AcNPV were solely the result of recombination within the coding region of the putative DNA helicase gene.
