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

Foamy virus (FV) replication is resistant to most nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors. In an attempt to create a 2',3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine (3TC)-sensitive virus, the second residue in the highly conserved YXDD motif of simian foamy virus-chimpanzee (human isolate) [SFVcpz(hu)] RT was changed from Val (V) to Met (M). Unexpectedly, the resultant virus, SFVcpz(hu) RT-V313M, replicated poorly, and Met rapidly reverted to Val. Despite the presence of approximately 50% of wild-type RT activity in RT-V313M virions, full-length DNA products were not detected in transfected cells. Using purified recombinant enzymes, we found that the wild-type FV RT is significantly more processive than human immunodeficiency virus type 1 RT. However, the V313M mutant has about 40% of the wild-type level of FV RT activity and has a lower processivity than the wild-type FV enzyme. The V313M mutant RT is also relatively resistant to 3TC. These results suggest that the decrease in RT activity and processivity of FV RT-V313M prevents completion of reverse transcription and greatly diminishes viral replication.
