Modulation of CCR5 expression and R5 HIV-1 infection in primary macrophages exposed to sera from HESN, LTNP, and chronically HIV-1 infected people with or without natural antibodies to CCR5.

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
CCR5 is the main co-receptor for HIV-1 cell entry and it plays key roles in HIV-1 mucosal transmission. Natural anti-CCR5 antibodies were found in HIV-1-exposed seronegative and long-term non-progressor subjects, suggesting a role in controlling viral replication in vivo. We assessed the effect of sera containing or not natural anti-CCR5 antibodies, on membrane CCR5 level and HIV-1 infection in primary macrophages. Sera modulated CCR5 expression with a trend dependent on the donor/serum tested but independent on the presence or absence of anti-CCR5 antibodies. All sera strongly reduced HIV-1 DNA in all donor's macrophages and no correlation was observed between CCR5 and viral DNA levels. These results suggest that CCR5 expression level is not a major determinant of macrophage infection and that the observed modulation of CCR5 and HIV-1 DNA might depend on factors other than CCR5-reactive antibodies present in sera and/or intrinsic to the donors on which sera were tested.
