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 endless battle between mammalian host cells and microbes has evolved mechanisms to shut down the expression of exogenous transcriptional units integrated into the genome with the goal of limiting their spreading. Recently, we observed that deprivation of essential amino acids leads to a selective, reversible upregulation of expression of exogenous transgenes, either carried by integrated plasmids or retroviral vectors, but not of their endogenous counterparts. This effect was dependent on epigenetic modifications and was mediated by the downregulation of the class II histone deacetylase-4 (HDAC4). Indeed, HDAC4 expression inversely correlated with that of the transgene and its inhibition or downregulation enhanced transgene expression. Could this be true also for "naturally" integrated proviruses? We investigated this question in the case of HIV-1, the etiological agent of AIDS and we observed that both amino acid starvation and HDAC4 inhibition triggered HIV-1 reactivation in chronically infected ACH-2 T lymphocytic cells (HDAC4
