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

In the last decade, RNA interference (RNAi) advanced to one of the most widely applied techniques in the biomedical research field and several RNAi therapeutic clinical trials have been launched. We focus on RNAi-based inhibitors against the chronic infection with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). A lentiviral gene therapy is proposed for HIV-infected patients that will protect and reconstitute the vital immune cell pool. The RNAi-based inhibitors that have been developed are short hairpin RNA molecules (shRNAs), of which multiple are needed to prevent viral escape. In ten distinct steps, we describe the selection process that started with 135 shRNA candidates, from the initial design criteria, via testing of the in vitro and in vivo antiviral activity and cytotoxicity to the final design of a combinatorial therapy with three shRNAs. These shRNAs satisfied all 10 selection criteria such as targeting conserved regions of the HIV-1 RNA genome, exhibiting robust inhibition of HIV-1 replication and having no impact on cell physiology. This combinatorial shRNA vector will soon move forward to the first clinical studies.
