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

The HLA-B*27 allele is overrepresented in patients who control HIV-1 replication without antiretroviral therapy. CD8(+) T cell responses that target the immunodominant KK10 epitope in Gag are thought to play a major role in this control, and escape at R264 of KK10 is often associated with dramatic virologic breakthrough. We present a case in which an HLA-B*27-positive chronic progressor transmitted HIV-1 to an HLA-B*27-positive viremic controller who was temporarily on HAART, but who has since controlled viremia for over 4 years. We hypothesized that differences in the KK10 epitope of these patients would affect pathogenesis and viral fitness, but found no correlation between autologous KK10 mutations and disease progression or between the predicted fitness impact of autologous HLA-B*27-associated mutations and the actual fitness of autologous virus. This case of viral transmission between two HLA-B*27-positive individuals provides further evidence that prolonged control of fully pathogenic HIV-1 is possible.
