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

Human pathogenic retroviruses do not have common loci of integration. However, many factors, such as chromatin structure, transcriptional activity, DNA-protein interaction, CpG methylation, and nucleotide composition of the target sequence, may influence integration site selection. These features have been investigated by in vitro integration reactions or by infection of cell lines with recombinant retroviruses. Less is known about target choice for integration in vivo. The present study was conducted in order to assess the characteristics of cellular sequences targeted for human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) integration in vivo. Sequencing integration sites from >/=200 proviruses (19 kb of sequence) isolated from 29 infected individuals revealed that HTLV-1 integration is not random at the level of the nucleotide sequence. The virus was found to integrate in A/T-rich regions with a weak consensus sequence at positions within and without of the hexameric repeat generated during integration. These features were not associated with a preference for integration near active regions or repeat elements of the host chromosomes. Most or all of the regions of the genome appear to be accessible to HTLV-1 integration. As with integration in vitro, integration specificity in vivo seems to be determined by local features rather than by the accessibility of specific regions.
