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 mechanisms by which viruses regulate host mRNAs during infection are still poorly understood. Several host transcripts that encode proteins that contribute to the anti-viral response contain the N6-methyladenosine nucleotide (m6A). In this study, we investigated if and how viruses from different (sub) families specifically affect m6A-containing host transcripts. Systematic analysis of host transcriptomes after infection with diverse types of viruses showed that m6A-methylated transcripts are selectively downregulated during infection with Sendai virus, African swine fever virus and the alphaherpesviruses herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and pseudorabies virus (PRV). Focusing on PRV and HSV-1, we found that downregulation of m6A-methylated transcripts depends on the YTHDF family of m6A-binding proteins, and correlates with localization of these proteins to enlarged P-bodies. Knockdown of YTHDF proteins in primary cells reduced PRV protein expression and increased expression of antiviral interferon-stimulated genes, suggesting that virus-induced depletion of host m6A-containing transcripts constitutes an immune evasion strategy.
