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

Diverse enveloped viruses enter cells by endocytosis and fusion with intracellular compartments. Recent evidence suggests that HIV also infects permissive cell lines by fusing with endosomes in a pH-independent manner. This finding highlights the importance of time-resolved monitoring of viral uptake. In the present study, we designed an imaging-based assay to measure endocytosis in real-time through probing the virus' accessibility to external solutions. Exposure of viruses bearing a pH-sensitive GFP (green fluorescent protein) variant on their surface to solutions of different acidity altered the fluorescence of surface-accessible particles, but not internalized viruses. By sequentially applying acidic and alkaline buffers with or without ammonium chloride, we were able to quantify the fractions of internalized and non-internalized virions, as well as the fraction of detached particles, over time. The exact time of single-virus internalization was assessed from the point when a particle ceased to respond to a perfusion with alternating acidic and alkaline buffers. We found that, surprisingly, HIV pseudoparticles entered acidic compartments shortly after internalization. These results suggest that the virus might be sorted to a quickly maturing pool of endocytic vesicles and thus be trafficked to fusion-permissive sites near the cell nucleus.
