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

Jurkat T-cell clones, stably expressing the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Vpr protein, exhibited an impaired susceptibility to HIV-1 infection. A marked down-modulation of surface CD4 receptors was detected in Vpr-expressing clones with respect to control cells. Likewise, a reduced CD4 expression was also observed in parental Jurkat cells infected with wild-type but not with Vpr-mutant HIV-1. Notably, Vpr-expressing clones were fully susceptible to infection with a vesicular stomatitis virus G protein-pseudotyped HIV-1 virus, indicating that a block at the level of viral entry was responsible for the inhibition of viral replication. The effect exerted by Vpr on HIV replication and CD4 expression suggests that this protein can regulate both the establishment of a productive HIV-1 infection and CD4-mediated T-cell functions.
