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

The vast majority of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 particles are claimed to be noninfectious, but there is disagreement as to whether they are defective or simply lack the opportunity to initiate an infection. We have examined the efficiencies of reverse transcription and integration and find that approximately 1 of every 8 virions that initiate reverse transcription form proviruses, a quantity significantly different from the commonly reported ratio of 1 in 1,000. In addition, results from two different infectivity assays demonstrate that the titers are not equivalent to the number of infectious particles. The apparent predominance of noninfectious particles is due to infrequent occurrences of successful virus-cell interactions.
