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 assembly of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) particles is driven by viral Gag protein. This function of Gag not only benefits from its self-multimerization property but also depends on its interaction with a number of cellular factors such as TSG101 and ALIX/AIP1 that promote virus budding and release from cell surfaces. However, interaction with Gag also allows some cellular factors such as APOBEC3G and Trim5alpha to access viral replication machinery and block viral replication. In this study, we report a new HIV-1 Gag-binding factor named insulin-like growth factor II mRNA binding protein 1 (IMP1). Gag-IMP1 interaction requires the second zinc finger of the nucleocapsid (NC) domain of Gag and the KH3 and KH4 domains of IMP1. A fourfold reduction of HIV-1 infectivity was seen with overexpression of the wild-type IMP1 and its mutant that is able to interact with Gag but not with overexpression of IMP1 mutants exhibiting Gag-binding deficiency. The decreased viral infectivity was further shown as a result of diminished viral RNA packaging, abrogated Gag processing on the cellular membranes, and impeded maturation of virus particles. Together, these results demonstrate that IMP1 interacts with HIV-1 Gag protein and is able to block the formation of infectious HIV-1 particles.
