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 course of HIV infection is arrested by antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, life-long ART is undesirable. To eradicate infection, strategies are needed to deplete the rare population of proviral genomes that persist and reemerge if ART is interrupted. Proviral HIV persists due to the simultaneous deficiency of factors required to allow proviral expression and virion production, and a predominance of factors that obstruct proviral expression. Combining ART with global inducers of T-cell activation has so far failed to eradicate HIV infection. One approach to the selective removal of obstacles to proviral expression, inhibition of the chromatin remodeling enzyme histone deacetylase, has entered clinical testing. Additional approaches may be needed. Ultimately, therapies that eliminate rare cells that persistently express HIV and interrupt low levels of viremia that persist in some patients may be required to render depletion of proviral HIV infection clinically relevant, and lead to the clearance of HIV infection.
