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

Infectious diseases continue to pose major threats to global public health, owing to the persistent emergence of novel and re-emerging viruses. However, the intricate mechanisms governing virus-host interactions remain incompletely understood. Precise regulation of protein function is critical during viral infection, and post-translational modifications (PTMs), as key modulators of protein activity, are extensively exploited by viruses at all stages of their life cycle. Upon entry into host cells, viruses frequently hijack host PTMs to reprogram cellular metabolism and signaling, thereby shaping infection outcomes. This review highlights recent advances in 10 major PTM types implicated in RNA virus infections, emphasizing their multifaceted roles across the viral life cycle. By integrating the latest proteomics findings, it aims to provide deeper insight into PTMs as potential targets for antiviral strategies and to explore their promise in treating virus-associated diseases.
