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

VP6 protein from chicken rotavirus Ch-1 showed more than 13% amino acid differences in comparison with pigeon and turkey VP6 sequences. This difference is greater than that observed between subgroup I and II mammalian rotavirus VP6 sequences. Phylogenetic tree analysis demonstrated that RV Ch-1 VP6 is not a link between avian and mammalian VP6 sequences. RV Ch-1 showed variant aa in 17 positions which were otherwise absolutely conserved in mammalian and avian group A RVs. The 17 replacements were scattered through the entire VP6 sequence except the C-terminal part implicated in the assembly of subviral particles. In RV Ch-1 the proline residue 309, reported to be critical for the trimerization of VP6, was replaced by leucine, but VP6 trimers were still observed. The sequence and hydrophilicity analysis of avian RV VP6 do not explain the anomalous electrophoretic migration behavior of avian VP6 proteins.
