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

Optimized DNA vectors were constructed comprising the proteome of SIV including the structural, enzymatic, regulatory, and accessory proteins. In addition to native antigens as produced by the virus, fusion proteins and modified antigens with altered secretion, cellular localization and stability characteristics were generated. The DNA vectors were tested for expression upon transfection in human cells. In addition, the vectors were tested either alone or in combinations in mice and macaques, which provided an opportunity to compare immune responses in two animal models. DNA only immunization using intramuscular injection in the absence or presence of in vivo electroporation did not alter the phenotype of the induced T cell responses in mice. Although several fusion proteins induced immune responses to all the components of a polyprotein, we noted fusion proteins that abrogated immune response to some of the components. Since the expression levels of such fusion proteins were not affected, these data suggest that the immune recognition of certain components was altered by the fusion. Testing different DNA vectors in mice and macaques revealed that a combination of DNAs producing different forms of the same antigen generated more balanced immune responses, a desirable feature for an optimal AIDS vaccine.
