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

purpose of reviewWe discuss the current knowledge concerning the biology of CXCR4 and CCR5 and their roles in HIV-1 infection. RECENT

findingsImportant research findings reported in the last 2 years have advanced our knowledge in the field of HIV coreceptors and pathogenesis. Novel methods have been used to crystallize two new members of the G-protein coupled receptors. It has been demonstrated that expression and stability of the naturally occurring truncated CCR5 protein is critical for resistance to HIV-1. The first stem cell transplantation of donor cells with the CCR5 mutation provided proof of principle. The Food and Drug Administration approved the first CCR5-based entry inhibitor. New CXCL12 isoforms were discovered, one isoform is a potent X4 inhibitor with weak chemotaxis activity. SUMMARY: The coreceptor discoveries revealed new insights into host and viral factors influencing HIV transmission and disease. The HIV/coreceptor interaction has become a major target for the development of novel antiviral strategies to treat and prevent HIV infection. The first CCR5-based entry inhibitor has been recently approved. New drugs that promote CCR5 and CXCR4 internalization, independent of cellular signaling, might provide clinical benefits with minimum side effects.
