Novel endogenous type C retrovirus in baboons: complete sequence, providing evidence for baboon endogenous virus gag-pol ancestry.
Article in Journal of virology, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
A complete endogenous type C viral genome has been isolated from a baboon genomic library. The provirus, Papio cynocephalus endogenous retrovirus (PcEV), is 8,572 nucleotides long, and 38 to 59 proviral copies per baboon genome are found. The PcEV provirus possesses the typical simple retroviral gene organization, including two long terminal repeats and genes encoding gag, pol, and env proteins. The open reading frames for gag-pol and env are complete but have premature stop codons or frameshift mutations. The primer binding site of PcEV is complementary to tRNAGly. The gag and pol genes of PcEV are closely related to those of the baboon endogenous virus (BaEV). The env coding region of PcEV is related to the env genes of type C retroviruses. This suggests that PcEV is one of the ancestors of BaEV contributing the type C gag-pol genome fragment to the type C/D recombinant virus BaEV. Earlier it was shown that another endogenous type D virus (simian endogenous retrovirus) provided the env gene for BaEV (A. C. van der Kuyl et al., J. Virol. 71:3666-3676, 1997).
