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

Amphotropic murine leukemia virus (MLV) replicates in cells from various mammalian species, including humans, and is a potential contaminant in MLV vector preparations for human gene transfer studies. The generation of replication-competent virus is considered less likely with vectors that delete the viral transcription elements. This conclusion is based on data obtained in rodents, where MLV replication depends on the expression of viral genes under the control of 75-bp enhancer elements in the long terminal repeat. We demonstrate here that in some human cells replication of amphotropic MLV is possible in the absence of these enhancer elements. Replication of the enhancer-deficient virus MLV-(MOA)Delta E is observed in selected human sarcoma and B lymphoma lines and proceeds at a lower rate than that of the intact virus. No insertion of a foreign promoter or enhancer into the long terminal repeat was detected. Our data suggest the presence of a secondary enhancer element within the MLV provirus that can in selected human cells mediate virus transcription and replication in the absence of the 75-bp U3 enhancers.
