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

During untreated human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, virus-specific CD8(+) T cells partially control HIV replication in peripheral lymphoid tissues, but host mechanisms of HIV control in the central nervous system (CNS) are incompletely understood. We characterized HIV-specific CD8(+) T cells in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and peripheral blood among seven HIV-positive antiretroviral therapy-naïve subjects. All had grossly normal brain magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy and normal neuropsychometric testing. Frequencies of epitope-specific CD8(+) T cells by direct tetramer staining were on average 2.4-fold higher in CSF than in blood (P = 0.0004), while HIV RNA concentrations were lower. Cells from CSF were readily expanded ex vivo and responded to a broader range of HIV-specific human leukocyte antigen class I restricted optimal peptides than did expanded cells from blood. HIV-specific CD8(+) T cells, in contrast to total CD8(+) T cells, in CSF and blood were at comparable maturation states, as assessed by CD45RO and CCR7 staining. The strong relationship between higher T-cell frequencies and lower levels of viral antigen in CSF could be the result of increased migration to and/or preferential expansion of HIV-specific T cells within the CNS. This suggests an important role for HIV-specific CD8(+) T cells in control of intrathecal viral replication.
