Insertion of myeloid-active elements into the human cytomegalovirus major immediate early promoter is not sufficient to drive its activation upon infection of undifferentiated myeloid cells.
Article in Virology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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 Major Immediate Early Promoter (MIEP) of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) controls viral Immediate Early (IE) gene expression, which must be activated to initiate productive infection and repressed to establish latency. Regulation of the MIEP is critical for both viral spread and persistence. In addition to the Daxx-mediated intrinsic cellular defense that regulates the MIEP, the cell-type specific balance between cellular activators and repressors of the promoter may help dictate whether viral IE genes will be expressed or silenced. For example, in undifferentiated myeloid cells, transcriptional repressors of the MIEP may outnumber transcriptional activators, leading to promoter silencing and latency establishment. We created a recombinant viral genome in which a myeloid-active promoter replaced part of the MIEP. The viable virus generated failed to express the viral IE genes in an undifferentiated myeloid cell line. These observations have mechanistic implications regarding how viral IE gene expression is regulated during latency.
