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

The membrane proximal external region (MPER) of HIV-1 gp41 is targeted by several neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) and is of interest for vaccine design. In this study, we identified novel MPER peptide mimotopes and evaluated their reactivity with HIV + plasma antibodies to characterize the diversity of the immune responses to MPER during natural infection. We utilized phage display technology to generate novel mimotopes that fit antigen-binding sites of MPER NAbs 4E10, 2F5 and Z13. Plasma antibodies from 10 HIV + patients were mapped by phage immunoprecipitation, to identify unique patient MPER binding profiles that were distinct from, and overlapping with, those of MPER NAbs. 4E10 mimotope binding profiles correlated with plasma neutralization of HIV-2/HIV-1 MPER chimeric virus, and with overall plasma neutralization breadth and potency. When administered as vaccines, 4E10 mimotopes elicited low titer NAb responses in mice. HIV mimotopes may be useful for detailed analysis of plasma antibody specificity.
