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

HIV infection currently has no effective cures and requires lifelong antiretroviral treatments. Cures have failed due to HIV's immune evasion and rapid mutation rate. Here we present a first in class HIV therapeutic vaccine, termed nanotrap therapeutic vaccines (NTVs) that are designed to capture circulating HIV virions and facilitate internalization by local antigen presenting cells. NTVs are modified liposomes that display the CD4 mimetic molecule, CJF288, on their surfaces and have the TLR 7/8 agonist R848 loaded into their bilayer. We show that NTVs can 1) bind gp120 and capture pseudoviral particles, 2) facilitate uptake by antigen presenting cells and 3) generate robust anti-HIV CD8 T cell immunity in transient infection mouse models. NTVs have translational potential to generate patient-specific HIV immunity.
