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

backgroundStrategies to control HIV for improving the quality of patient lives have been aided by the Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy (HAART), which consists of a cocktail of inhibitors targeting key viral enzymes. Numerous new drugs have been developed over the past few decades but viral resistances to these drugs in the targeted viral enzymes are increasingly reported. Nonetheless the acquired mutations often reduce viral fitness and infectivity. Viral compensatory secondary-line mutations mitigate this loss of fitness, equipping the virus with a broad spectrum of resistance against these drugs. While structural understanding of the viral protease and its drug resistance mutations have been well established, the interconnectivity and development of structural cross-resistance remain unclear. This paper reports the structural analyses of recent clinical mutations on the drug cross-resistance effects from various protease and protease inhibitors (PIs) complexes.

methodsUsing the 2015 updated clinical HIV protease mutations, we constructed a structure-based correlation network and a minimum-spanning tree (MST) based on the following features: (i) topology of the PI-binding pocket, (ii) allosteric effects of the mutations, and (iii) protease structural stability. RESULTS AND

conclusionAnalyis of the network and the MST of dominant mutations conferring resistance to the seven PIs (Atazanavir-ATV, Darunavir-DRV, Indinavir-IDV, Lopinavir-LPV, Nelfinavir-NFV, Saquinavir-SQV, and Tipranavir-TPV) showed that cross-resistance can develop easily across NFV, SQV, LPV, IDV, and DRV, but not for ATV or TPV. Through estimation of the changes in vibrational entropies caused by each reported mutation, some secondary mutations were found to destabilize protease structure. Our findings provide an insight into the mechanism of PI cross-resistance and may also be useful in guiding the selection of PI in clinical treatment to delay the onset of cross drug resistance.
