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

We have investigated the involvement of cytoskeletal proteins in the morphogenesis of Black Creek Canal virus (BCCV), a New World hantavirus. Immunofluorescent staining of BCCV-infected cells revealed a filamentous pattern of virus antigen, the appearance of which was sensitive to treatment with cytochalasin D, an actin microfilament-depolymerizing drug. Double immunofluorescence staining of BCCV-infected Vero cells with anti-BCCV nucleocapsid (N) monoclonal antibody and phalloidin revealed a colocalization of the BCCV N protein with actin microfilaments. A similar, though less prominent, filamentous pattern was observed in BHK21 cells transiently expressing the BCCV N protein alone but not in cells expressing the BCCV G1 and G2 glycoproteins. Moreover, the association of the N protein with actin microfilaments was confirmed by coimmunoprecipitation with beta-actin-specific antibody. Treatment of the BCCV-infected Vero cells at 3 days postinfection with cytochalasin D decreased the yield of released BCCV by 94% relative to the yield from untreated cells. Pretreatment of Vero cells with cytochalasin D prior to and during BCCV adsorption and entry had no effect on the outcome of virus production. These results indicate that actin filaments may play an important role in hantavirus assembly and/or release.
