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 currently approved antiviral drugs for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection are nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI), which inhibit the DNA synthesis activity of the HBV polymerase. The polymerase is a unique reverse transcriptase (RT) that has a novel protein priming activity in which HP initiates viral DNA synthesis using itself as a protein primer. We have determined the ability of NRTI-triphosphates (TP) to inhibit HBV protein priming and their mechanisms of action. While entecavir-TP (a dGTP analog) inhibited protein priming initiated specifically with dGTP, clevudine-TP (a TTP analog) was able to inhibit protein priming independently of the deoxynucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) substrate and without being incorporated into DNA. We next investigated the effect of NRTIs on the second stage of protein priming, wherein two dAMP nucleotides are added to the initial deoxyguanosine nucleotide. The obtained results indicated that clevudine-TP as well as tenofovir DF-DP strongly inhibited the second stage of protein priming. Tenofovir DF-DP was incorporated into the viral DNA primer, whereas clevudine-TP inhibited the second stage of priming without being incorporated. Finally, kinetic analyses using the HBV endogenous polymerase assay revealed that clevudine-TP inhibited DNA chain elongation by HP in a noncompetitive manner. Thus, clevudine-TP appears to have the unique ability to inhibit HBV RT via binding to and distorting the HP active site, sharing properties with both NRTIs and nonnucleoside RT inhibitors.
