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

It had been suggested that during integration of spumaretroviruses (foamy viruses) the right (U5) end of the cDNA is processed, while the left (U3) remains uncleaved. We confirmed this hypothesis by sequencing two-long terminal repeat (LTR) circle junctions of unintegrated DNA. Based on an infectious foamy virus molecular clone, a set of constructs harboring mutations at the 5' end of the U3 region in the 3' LTR was analyzed for particle export, reverse transcription, and replication. Following transient transfection some mutants were severely impaired in generating infectious virus, while others replicated almost like the wild type. The replication competence of the mutants was unrelated to the cleavability of the newly created U3 end. This became obvious with two mutants both belonging to the high-titer type. One mutant containing a dinucleotide artificially transferred from the right to the left end was trimmed upon integration, while another one with an unrelated dinucleotide in that place was not. The latter construct in particular showed that the canonical TG motif at the beginning of the provirus is not essential for foamy virus integration.
