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

Human cytomegalovirus latency and reactivation is a major source of morbidity in immune-suppressed patient populations. Lifelong latent infections are established in CD34+progenitor cells in the bone marrow, which are hallmarked by a lack of major lytic gene expression, genome replication and virus production. A number of studies have shown that inhibition of the major immediate early promoter (MIEP) - the promoter that regulates immediate early (IE) gene expression - is important for the establishment of latency and that, by extension, reactivation requires reversal of this repression of the MIEP. The identification of novel promoters (termed ip1 and ip2) downstream of the MIEP that can drive IE gene expression has led to speculation over the precise role of the MIEP in reactivation. In this study we show that IE transcripts arise from both the MIEP and ip2 promoter in the THP1 cell macrophage cell line and also CD14+monocytes stimulated with phorbol ester. In contrast, we show that in
