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

Cell entry by HIV-1 is mediated by its principal receptor, CD4, and a coreceptor, either CCR5 or CXCR4, with viral envelope glycoprotein gp120. Generally, CCR5-using HIV-1 variants, called R5, predominate over most of the course of infection, while CXCR4-using HIV-1 variants (variants that utilize both CCR5 and CXCR4 [R5X4, or dual] or CXCR4 alone [X4]) emerge at late-stage infection in half of HIV-1-infected individuals and are associated with disease progression. Although X4 variants also appear during acute-phase infection in some cases, these variants apparently fall to undetectable levels thereafter. In this study, replication-competent X4 variants were isolated from plasma of drug treatment-naive individuals infected with HIV-1 strain CRF01_AE, which dominantly carries viral RNA (vRNA) of R5 variants. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) confirmed that sequences of X4 variants were indeed present in plasma vRNA from these individuals as a minor population. On the other hand, in one individual with a mixed infection in which X4 variants were dominant, only R5 replication-competent variants were isolated from plasma. These results indicate the existence of replication-competent variants with different coreceptor usage as minor populations.
