Integrin alpha4beta7 is downregulated on the surfaces of simian immunodeficiency virus SIVmac239-infected cells.
Article in Journal of virology, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection results in an early and enduring depletion of intestinal CD4(+) T cells. SIV and HIV bind integrin alpha4beta7, thereby facilitating infection of lymphocytes that home to the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT). Using an ex vivo flow cytometry assay, we found that SIVmac239-infected cells expressed significantly lower levels of integrin alpha4beta7 than did uninfected cells. This finding suggested a potential viral effect on integrin alpha4beta7 expression. Using an in vitro model, we confirmed that integrin alpha4beta7 was downregulated on the surfaces of SIVmac239-infected cells. Further, modulation of integrin alpha4beta7 was dependent on de novo synthesis of viral proteins, but neither cell death, the release of a soluble factor, nor a change in activation state was involved. Downregulation of integrin alpha4beta7 may have an unappreciated role in the CD4 depletion of the mucosal-associated lymphoid compartments, susceptibility to superinfection, and/or immune evasion.
