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

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease plays a fundamental role in the maturation and life cycle of the retrovirus HIV-1, as it functions in regulating post-translational processing of the viral polyproteins gag and gag-pol; thus, it is a key target of AIDS antiviral therapy. Accessibility of substrate to the active site is mediated by two flaps, which must undergo a large conformational change from an open to a closed conformation during substrate binding and catalysis. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) method of site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) with double electron-electron resonance (DEER) spectroscopy was utilized to monitor the conformations of the flaps in apo HIV-1 protease (HIV-1PR), subtypes B, C, and F, CRF01_A/E, and patient isolates V6 and MDR 769. The distance distribution profiles obtained from analysis of the dipolar modulated echo curves were reconstructed to yield a set of Gaussian-shaped populations, which provide an analysis of the flap conformations sampled. The relative percentages of each conformer population described as "tucked/curled", "closed", "semi-open", and "wide-open" were determined and compared for various constructs. The results and analyses show that sequence variations among subtypes, CRFs, and patient isolates of apo HIV-1PR alter the average flap conformation in a way that can be understood as inducing shifts in the relative populations, or conformational sampling, of the previously described four conformations for HIV-1PR.
