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

We have shown that polyamide nucleic acids (PNAs) targeted to the PBS (PNA(PBS)) and A-loop (PNA(A-loop)) sequences, when transfected into cells, inhibit HIV-1 replication by blocking the initiation of reverse transcription via destabilizing tRNA(3)(Lys) primer from the viral genome. Here we demonstrate that both PNA(PBS) and PNA(A-loop) conjugated with the membrane-transducing peptide (MTD) vectors penetratin and Tat are rapidly taken up by cells and inhibit HIV-1 replication. Moreover, MTD peptide conjugates of PNA(PBS) and PNA(A-loop) displayed potent virucidal activity against HIV-1. Brief exposure of HIV-1 virions to these conjugates rendered them noninfectious. The IC(50) values for virucidal activity were in the range of approximately 50 nM; IC(50) values for inhibition of HIV-1 replication/infection were 0.5 microM-0.7 microM. The virucidal property of these conjugates suggests that a cocktail of anti-HIV-1 PNA-MTD peptide conjugates targeting critical regions of the HIV-1 genome could serve as a prophylactic agent for inactivating HIV-1 virions after exposure to HIV-1.
