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 phorbol ester Prostratin may either stimulate or inhibit human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) replication. Here we report that Prostratin also exhibits a similar dual action upon feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) replication in an IL-2-dependent feline CD4(+) T-cell line (MYA-1). While withdrawal of IL-2 halted FIV spread, Prostratin rescued virus production and cell viability, mimicking the functions of the cytokine. Conversely, FIV grew rapidly in the presence of IL-2 and this was inhibited by Prostratin. In contrast to HIV-1, Prostratin mediated inhibition of FIV through means other than blocking virus entry. Co-application of the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor Gö6850 with Prostratin reversed both the inhibitory and stimulatory effects, suggesting that PKC is crucial for FIV replication.
