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

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) virions contain heat shock proteins (HSP), but these proteins have received limited attention. The objectives of this study were to establish if the microbial 70-kDa HSP exerts an inhibitory effect on the HIV-1 infection of human CD4+ T cells, to identify an inhibitory peptide epitope within the sequence of HSP70, and to evaluate the kinetic features of any inhibitory activity. The results of these studies suggest that microbial HSP70 exerts dose-dependent inhibition on CCR5 (R5) strains of clades B, C, and D of HIV-1 infecting human CD4+ T cells. The site of the HIV-1-inhibitory function was identified within the C-terminal peptide binding domain of HSP70, and the function is expressed by the peptide epitope comprising amino acids 407 to 426. The mechanism of inhibition of HIV-1 infectivity by HSP70 is blocking of the CCR5 coreceptors directly and indirectly by inducing CC chemokines and APOBEC3G. The inhibitory effect of HSP70, its C-terminal fragment, or peptide 407-426 may make HSP70 useful as a microbicidal agent. A potentiating noncognate inhibition of HIV-1 infectivity by combined treatment with HSP70 and monoclonal or polyclonal antibody to CCR5 was demonstrated. This novel strategy may be utilized in therapeutic immunization against HIV-1 infection.
