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

T cell activation is crucial for the productive HIV-1 infection of primary T cells; however, little is known about the host molecules involved in this process. We show that the host transcription factor NF-IL6 (also called C/EBPbeta) renders primary CD4(+) T cells highly permissive for HIV-1 replication. NF-IL6 facilitates reverse transcription of the virus by binding to and inhibiting the antiviral cytidine deaminase APOBEC3G. A mutation in NF-IL6 at Ser-288 weakened its binding to APOBEC3G and strongly inhibited HIV-1 replication. NF-IL6 also induced the replication of a Vif-deficient strain of HIV-1 in nonpermissive HUT78 cells. These data indicate that NF-IL6 is a natural inhibitor of APOBEC3G that facilitates HIV-1 replication. Host factors, such as NF-IL6, that are involved in early HIV-1 replication are potential targets for anti-HIV-1 therapy. Our findings shed light on the activation of HIV-1 replication by T cell host molecules and reveal a unique regulation of DNA deamination by APOBEC3G and NF-IL6.
