Immunological basis for IgE hyper-production in enfuvirtide-treated HIV- positive patients.
Article in Journal of clinical immunology, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
We previously reported that enfuvirtide (ENF) treatment is accompanied by a selective increase of serum IgE. We asked whether ENF had intrinsic capability to direct B-lymphocytes to switch to IgE and/or if it could drive CD4 T cells to a Th2 phenotype. ENF was added in vitro: (a) to B-lymphocytes stimulated with IgE-switch inducing stimuli; (b) to peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Total IgE production by B cells and IL4 and IFN-gamma production by CD4 T lymphocytes were evaluated, respectively. ENF had no measurable effect on the IgE production by B-lymphocytes. In contrast, it sharply increased the IL4 to IFN-gamma (a correlate of the Th2 phenotype) when added in vitro to T cells from healthy donors or from single ENF-treated patients. The hyper-IgE production in ENF-treated patients is associated with the in vitro induction of a type-2 phenotype in CD4 T cells.
