Computational Insights on the Assembly of the Dengue Virus Membrane-Capsid-RNA Complex.

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
Dengue virus, an arbovirus from the genus Flavivirus in the family Flaviviridae, forms a nucleocapsid structure through interactions between its genome and multiple copies of the capsid protein. Experimental studies have confirmed the interaction between the viral capsid protein and lipid droplets, indicating a protein-lipid interaction. Cryo-EM studies show that in immature viruses, the nucleocapsid is located close to the viral membrane. This study uses multiple MD simulations to explore the orientation of the capsid protein relative to the lipid membrane, focusing on how the protein's hydrophobic pocket interacts with the membrane. We also investigated the interaction between the capsid protein and RNA, considering the effects of sequence length and identity. Finally, we construct a model of the lipid-protein-RNA complex, demonstrating that the capsid protein's hydrophobic pocket interacts with the membrane, while the positively charged H4 helix interacts with the negatively charged RNA. This research may identify crucial interactions for immature virus particle formation and provide insights for future therapeutic interventions.
