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

Tat regulation of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transcription is unique because of its specificity for an RNA target, TAR, and its ability to increase the efficiency of elongation by polymerase. A reconstituted reaction that is Tat-specific and TAR-dependent for activation of HIV transcription has been used to identify and partially purify a cellular activity that is required for trans-activation by Tat, but not by other activators. In the reaction, Tat stimulates the efficiency of elongation by polymerase, whereas Sp1 and other DNA sequence-specific transcription factors activate the rate of initiation. Furthermore, while TATA binding protein (TBP)-associated factors (TAFs) in the TFIID complex are required for activation by transcription factors, they are dispensable for Tat function. Thus, Tat acts through a novel mechanism, which is mediated by a specific host cellular factor, to stimulate HIV-1 gene expression.
