No evidence for ongoing replication on ART in SIV-infected macaques.
Article in Nature communications, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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 capacity of HIV-1 to replicate during optimal antiretroviral therapy (ART) is challenging to assess directly. To gain greater sensitivity to detect evolution on ART, we used a nonhuman primate (NHP) model providing precise control over the level of pre-ART evolution and more comprehensive analyses than are possible with clinical samples. We infected 21 rhesus macaques (RMs) with the barcoded virus SIVmac239M and initiated ART early to minimize baseline genetic diversity. RMs were treated for 285-1200 days. We used several tests of molecular evolution to compare 1352 near-full-length (nFL) SIV DNA single genome sequences from PBMCs, lymph nodes, and spleen obtained near the time of ART initiation and those present after long-term ART, none of which showed significant changes to the SIV DNA population during ART in any animal. To investigate the possibility of ongoing replication in unsampled putative tissue sanctuaries during ART, we discontinued treatment in four animals and confirmed that none of the 336 nFL SIV RNA sequences obtained from rebound plasma viremia showed evidence of evolution. The rigorous nature of our analyses reinforced the emerging consensus of a lack of appreciable ongoing replication on effective ART and validates the relevance of this NHP model for cure studies.
