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

Modern sequencing instruments bring unprecedented opportunity to study within-host viral evolution in conjunction with viral transmissions between hosts. However, no computational simulators are available to assist the characterization of within-host dynamics. This limits our ability to interpret epidemiological predictions incorporating within-host evolution and to validate computational inference tools. To fill this need we developed Apollo, a GPU-accelerated, out-of-core tool for within-host simulation of viral evolution and infection dynamics across population, tissue, and cellular levels. Apollo is scalable to hundreds of millions of viral genomes and can handle complex demographic and population genetic models. Apollo can replicate real within-host viral evolution; accurately recapturing observed viral sequences from an HIV cohort derived from initial population-genetic configurations. For practical applications, using Apollo-simulated viral genomes and transmission networks, we validated and uncovered the limitations of a widely used viral transmission inference tool.
