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 vaccinia virus late stage-specific transcription factor P3 was purified to homogeneity from HeLa cells that were infected in the presence of an inhibitor of viral DNA replication. The purified 36-kDa protein was digested with trypsin, and the peptides were analyzed by mass spectroscopy and amino-terminal sequencing. The purified factor was identified as the product of the vaccinia virus H5R open reading frame by both methods. A recombinant baculovirus was engineered to express the H5R open reading frame. The partially purified recombinant protein could replace the vaccinia virus P3 factor in transcription assays. On the basis of these findings, we assigned the H5R gene product the name viral late gene transcription factor 4 (VLTF-4). Unlike VLTF-1, -2, and -3, which are synthesized exclusively after viral DNA replication, VLTF-4 is synthesized before and after viral DNA synthesis. Indirect immunofluorescence of infected cells with anti-H5R protein antiserum demonstrated that VLTF-4 is diffusely distributed in the cytoplasm when DNA replication is blocked but is localized to discrete viral DNA-containing factories during a productive infection. Its expression pattern and subcellular distribution suggest that the H5R gene product may have multiple roles in the viral life cycle.
