Spectrum of Activity of Raltegravir and Dolutegravir Against Novel Treatment-Associated Mutations in HIV-2 Integrase: A Phenotypic Analysis Using an Expanded Panel of Site-Directed Mutants.
Article in The Journal of infectious diseases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundIntegrase inhibitors (INIs) are a key component of antiretroviral therapy for human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) and HIV-2 infection. Although INI resistance pathways are well-defined for HIV-1, mutations that emerge in HIV-2 in response to INIs are incompletely characterized.
methodsWe performed systematic searches of GenBank and HIV-2 drug resistance literature to identify treatment-associated mutations for phenotypic evaluation. We then constructed a library of 95 mutants of HIV-2ROD9 that contained single or multiple amino acid changes in the integrase protein. Each variant was tested for susceptibility to raltegravir and dolutegravir using a single-cycle indicator cell assay.
resultsWe observed extensive cross-resistance between raltegravir and dolutegravir in HIV-2ROD9. HIV-2-specific integrase mutations Q91R, E92A, A153G, and H157Q/S, which have not been previously characterized, significantly increased the half maximum effective concentration (EC50) for raltegravir when introduced into 1 or more mutational backgrounds; mutations E92A/Q, T97A, and G140A/S conferred similar enhancements of dolutegravir resistance. HIV-2ROD9 variants encoding G118R alone, or insertions of residues SREGK or SREGR at position 231, were resistant to both INIs.
conclusionsOur analysis demonstrates the contributions of novel INI-associated mutations to raltegravir and dolutegravir resistance in HIV-2. These findings should help to improve algorithms for genotypic drug resistance testing in HIV-2-infected individuals.
