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 investigated the ability of western equine encephalitis virus envelope glycoproteins (WEEV GP) to pseudotype lentiviral vectors. The titers of WEEV GP-pseudotyped human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV) ranged as high as 8.0 x 10(4) IU/ml on permissive cells. Sera from WEEV-infected mice specifically neutralized these pseudotypes; cell transduction was also sensitive to changes in pH. The host range of the pseudotyped particles in vitro was somewhat limited, which is atypical for most alphaviruses. HIV vectors pseudotyped by WEEV GP may be a useful tool for characterizing WEEV cell binding and entry and screening for small-molecule inhibitors.
