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

In this study, reverse transcriptase (RT)- and integrase (IN)-defective human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) was transcomplemented with Vpr-RT-IN fusion proteins to delineate pol sequences important for HIV-1 replication. Our results reveal that a 194-bp sequence encompassing the 3'end of the IN gene and containing the central DNA flap is necessary and sufficient for efficient HIV-1 single-cycle replication in dividing and nondividing cells. Furthermore, we show that the central DNA flap enhances HIV-1 single-round replication by five- to sevenfold, primarily by facilitating nuclear import of proviral DNA. In agreement with previous reports, our data support a functional role of the central DNA flap during the early stages of HIV-1 infection.
