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

The gamma interferon (IFN-gamma)-inducible protein 30 (IP-30) signal peptide -11 to -3 (LLDVPTAAV) is a prominent self peptide expressed with the class I human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen A2 (HLA-A2). Stimulation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from HLA-A2 human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected individuals with an HLA-A2-restricted HIV protease (PR) peptide 76-84 (LVGPTPVNI) activated cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) against the IP-30 signal peptide. Since HIV-1 PR 76-84 stimulated CD8+ T cells from these individuals to secrete IFN-gamma, we tested whether the activation of IP-30-specific CTL in vitro resulted from T-cell cross-reactivity or from up-regulation of IP-30 by IFN-gamma. Neither high levels of exogenous IFN-gamma nor incubation of PBMC with other HIV peptides triggering substantial IFN-gamma release activated IP-30-specific CTL. Although the IP-30 signal peptide did not stimulate IFN-gamma release from freshly isolated PBMC, it activated CTL in vitro against itself and HIV PR 76-84. Peptide-stimulated IFN-gamma release, cold target inhibition, and HLA-A2/immunoglobulin dimer-mediated binding and depletion of effector cells all indicated that in vitro stimulation with HIV PR 76-84 or the IP-30 signal peptide activated a comparable population of cross-reactive effector cells. Neither IP-30 nor HIV PR 76-84 activated CTL against themselves following in vitro stimulation of PBMC from non-HIV-infected HLA-A2 individuals. Peptide titrations indicated higher-avidity T-cell interactions with HIV PR 76-84 than with the IP-30 signal peptide. These data indicate that HIV PR 76-84 is a heteroclitic variant of the IP-30 signal peptide -11 to -3, which has implications for immune memory and autoimmunity.
