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 immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive individuals express elevated levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8), which is believed to be responsible for some of the clinical manifestations occurring during AIDS. We report here that virion-derived HIV type 1 (HIV-1) protein R (Vpr) increased IL-8 expression in primary T cells and macrophages, as well as in the T-cell line Jurkat, the monocytic cell line U937, and the epithelial cell line A549. Vpr appeared to increase IL-8 expression and IL-8 promoter activity by activating transcription factors NF-kappaB and NF-IL-6. Elevated Vpr was also shown to increase transcription of the NF-kappaB and NF-IL-6 enhancer-containing viral promoters for HIV, cytomegalovirus, and simian virus 40, as well as increase the expression of IL-6 and IL-10 in primary macrophages and in A549 cells, tumor necrosis factor alpha expression in primary T cells, and IL-6 and gamma interferon expression in U937 cells. These results suggest a new role for Vpr in the pathogenesis of HIV infection, namely, the activation of transcription factors NF-IL-6 and NF-kappaB.
