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

A method has been developed to follow fusion of individual pseudotyped virus expressing HIV-1 Env to cells by time-resolved fluorescence microscopy. Viral envelopes were labeled with a fluorescent lipid dye (DiD) and virus content was rendered visible by incorporating a Gag-GFP chimera. The Gag-GFP is naturally cleaved to the much smaller NC-GFP fragment in the mature virions. NC-GFP was readily released upon permeabilization of the viral envelope, whereas the capsid was retained. The NC-GFP thus provides a relatively small and mobile aqueous marker to follow viral content transfer. In fusion experiments, virions were bound to cells at low temperature, and fusion was synchronously triggered by a temperature jump. DiD transferred from virions to cells without a significant lag after the temperature jump. Some virions released DiD but retained NC-GFP. Surprisingly, the fraction of lipid mixing events yielding NC-GFP transfer was dependent on the type of target cell: of three infectable cell lines, only one permitted NC-GFP transfer within minutes of raising temperature. NC-GFP release did not correlate with the level of CD4 or coreceptor expression in the target cells. The data indicate that fusion pores formed by HIV-1 Env can remain small for a relatively long time before they enlarge.
