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

Rhinovirus is the main pathogen causing common colds, acute exacerbations of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other respiratory diseases. Due to its numerous serotypes and the lack of common conserved viral targets, the development of traditional direct-acting antiviral drugs (DAAs) faces challenges. Host-targeting antivirals (HTAs), as an emerging strategy, provide a new approach to overcome this difficulty by interfering with the host cell factors or pathways necessary for viral replication. This review systematically presents the latest progress in host-targeted rhinovirus therapy by focusing on numerous host factors involved in rhinovirus invasion, attachment, biosynthesis, assembly and release, and immune regulation. Although the prospects are broad, the clinical transformation of this strategy still faces challenges such as safety, delivery efficiency, and individual differences. In conclusion, HTAs are expected to become a transformative treatment strategy for rhinovirus infection, especially for high-risk patient groups.
