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

Primate lentiviruses include the HIVs, HIV-1 and HIV-2; the SIVs, which are endemic to more than 40 species of nonhuman primates in Africa; and SIVmac, an AIDS-causing pathogen that emerged in US macaque colonies in the 1970s. Because of the worldwide spread of HIV and AIDS, primate lentiviruses have been intensively investigated for more than 30 years. Research on these viruses has played a leading role in the discovery and characterization of intrinsic immunity, and in particular the identification of several antiviral effectors (also known as restriction factors) including APOBEC3G, TRIM5α, BST-2/tetherin and SAMHD1. Comparative studies of the primate lentiviruses and their hosts have proven critical for understanding both the evolutionary significance and biological relevance of intrinsic immunity, and the role intrinsic immunity plays in governing viral host range and interspecies transmission of viruses in nature.
