Associations between HIV-1 DNA copy number, proviral transcriptional activity, and plasma viremia in individuals off or on suppressive antiretroviral therapy.
Article in Virology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers.
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.
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 relationships between HIV-1 DNA copy number, proviral transcriptional activity, and residual plasma viremia in individuals off and on ART are not well defined. To address this, we performed a cross-sectional study of 12 viremic donors and 23 ART-treated virologically suppressed (plasma HIV-1 RNA<20 copies/ml) donors. We report a strong association between HIV-1 DNA copy number and HIV-1 transcriptional activity in blood that persists on suppressive ART, but not between transcriptional activity and the levels of persistent viremia on ART. The latter finding contrasts with that in viremic donors and suggests that most HIV transcription in donors on suppressive ART does not result in virion production. This uncoupling of proviral transcription and viremia warrants closer investigation.
