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 relationship between virion protein maturation and genomic RNA dimerization of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) remains incompletely understood. We have constructed HIV-1 Gag cleavage site mutants to enable the steady state observation of virion maturation steps, and precisely study Gag processing, RNA dimerization, virion morphology and infectivity. Within the virion maturation process, the RNA dimer stabilization begins during the primary cleavage (p2-NC) of Pr55 Gag. However, the primary cleavage alone is not sufficient, and the ensuing cleavages are required for the completion of dimerization. From our observations, the increase of cleavage products may not put a threshold on the transition from fragile to stable dimeric RNA. Most of the RNA dimerization process did not require viral core formation, and particle morphology dynamics during viral maturation did not completely synchronize with the transition of dimeric RNA status. Although the endogenous virion RT activity was fully acquired at the initial step of maturation, the following process was necessary for viral DNA production in infected cell, suggesting the maturation of viral RNA/protein plays critical role for viral infectivity other than RT process.
