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

Inhibition of virus replication by means of RNA interference has been reported for several important human pathogens, including human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). RNA interference against these pathogens has been accomplished by introduction of virus-specific synthetic small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) or DNA constructs encoding short-hairpin RNAs (shRNAs). Their use as therapeutic antiviral against HIV-1 is limited, because of the emergence of viral escape mutants. In order to solve this durability problem, we tested DNA constructs encoding virus-specific long-hairpin RNAs (lhRNAs) for their ability to inhibit HIV-1 production. Expression of lhRNAs in mammalian cells may result in the synthesis of many siRNAs targeting different viral sequences, thus providing more potent inhibition and reducing the chance of viral escape. The lhRNA constructs were compared with in vitro diced double-stranded RNA and a DNA construct encoding an effective nef-specific shRNA for their ability to inhibit HIV-1 production in cells. Our results show that DNA constructs encoding virus-specific lhRNAs are capable of inhibiting HIV-1 production in a sequence-specific manner, without inducing the class I interferon genes.
