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

CD4(+) T-cell help is essential for effective immune responses to viruses. In human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, CD4(+) T cells specific for HIV are infected by the virus at higher frequencies than other memory CD4(+) T cells. Here, we demonstrate that HIV-specific CD4(+) T cells are barely detectable in most infected individuals and that the corresponding CD4(+) T cells exhibit an immature phenotype compared to both cytomegalovirus (CMV)-specific CD4(+) T cells and other memory CD4(+) T cells. However, in two individuals, we observed a rare and diametrically opposed pattern in which HIV-specific CD4(+) T-cell populations of large magnitude exhibited a terminally differentiated immunophenotype; these cells were not preferentially infected in vivo. Clonotypic analysis revealed that the HIV-specific CD4(+) T cells from these individuals were cross-reactive with CMV. Thus, preferential infection can be circumvented in the presence of cross-reactive CD4(+) T cells driven to maturity by coinfecting viral antigens, and this physical proximity rather than activation status per se is an important determinant of preferential infection based on antigen specificity. These data demonstrate that preferential infection reduces the life span of HIV-specific CD4(+) T cells in vivo and thereby compromises the generation of effective immune responses to the virus itself; further, this central feature in the pathophysiology of HIV infection can be influenced by the cross-reactivity of responding CD4(+) T cells.
