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

Thymidine analog mutations (TAMs) in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT) confer resistance to zidovudine (AZT) by increasing the rate of ATP-dependent phosphorolysis of the terminal nucleotide monophosphate (primer unblocking). By contrast, the L74V mutation, which confers resistance to didanosine, sensitizes HIV-1 to AZT and partially restores AZT susceptibility when present together with one or more TAMs. To compare rates of primer unblocking in RTs carrying different clusters of TAMs and to explore the biochemical mechanism by which L74V affects AZT susceptibility, ATP-mediated rescue of AZT-blocked DNA synthesis was assayed using a series of purified recombinant RTs. Rates of primer unblocking were higher in the 67N/70R/219Q RT than in the 41L/210W/215Y enzyme and were similar to rates observed with an RT carrying six TAMs (41L/67N/70R/210W/215Y/219Q). The presence of 74V in an otherwise wild-type RT reduced the rate of primer unblocking to a degree similar to that observed with the M184V mutation for lamivudine resistance, which also sensitizes HIV-1 to AZT. Introduction of 74V into RTs carrying TAMs partially counteracted the effect of TAMs on the rate of primer unblocking. The effect of 74V was less marked than that of the 184V mutation in the 67N/70R/219Q and 41L/210W/215Y RTs but similar in the RT carrying six TAMs. These results demonstrate that L74V enhances AZT susceptibility by reducing the extent of its removal by ATP-dependent phosphorolysis and provides further evidence for a common mechanism by which mutations conferring resistance to didanosine and lamivudine sensitize HIV-1 to AZT.
