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

CD4 T cell activation is critical to the initiation of adaptive immunity. CD4 T cells are also the main targets of HIV infection, and their activation status contributes to the maintenance and outcome of infection. Although the role of activation in the differentiation and proliferation of CD4 T cells is well studied, its impact on the processing and MHC class I (MHC-I) presentation of epitopes and immune recognition by CD8 T cells are not investigated. In this study, we show that the expression and hydrolytic activities of cellular peptidases are increased upon TCR-dependent and MHC-peptide activation of primary CD4 T cells from healthy or HIV-infected persons. Changes in peptidase activities altered the degradation patterns of HIV Ags analyzed by mass spectrometry, modifying the amount of MHC-I epitopes produced, the antigenicity of the degradation products, and the coverage of Ags by degradation peptides presentable by MHC-I. The computational analysis of 2237 degradation peptides generated during the degradation of various HIV-antigenic fragments in CD4 T cells identified cleavage sites that were predictably enhanced, reduced, or unchanged upon cellular activation. Epitope processing and presentation by CD4 T cells may be modulated by the activation state of cells in a sequence-dependent manner. Accordingly, cellular activation modified endogenous Ag processing and presentation and killing of HIV-infected CD4 T cells by CD8 T cells in a way that mirrored differences in in vitro epitope processing. The clearance of HIV-infected cells may rely on different immune responses according to activation state during HIV infection.
