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

All known broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs) are highly somatically mutated and therefore significantly differ from their germline predecessors. Thus although the mature bnAbs bind to conserved epitopes of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) with high affinity their germline predecessors do not or weakly bind Envs failing to initiate an effective immune response. The identification of less somatically mutated bnAbs and/or antibody maturation intermediates that are clonally related to bnAbs may be useful to circumvent the major problem of initiating immune responses leading to elicitation of bnAbs. Here, we describe the identification of IgG antibodies from an acutely HIV-1-infected patient using a combination of phage display and high-throughput sequencing. We found two antibodies with only a single point mutation in the V region of their heavy chain variable domains compared to their putative germline predecessors which bound with high affinity to several Envs. They targeted the Env gp41 and did not neutralize HIV-1. Using high-throughput sequencing, we identified several highly abundant CDR3s, germline-like as well as somatically mutated V genes in the VH/VL repertoires of the patient which may provide antibody intermediates corresponding to known bnAbs as templates for design of novel HIV-1 vaccine immunogens.
