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

One strategy for somatic gene therapy for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection is based on the regulated expression of dominant negative mutants of the HIV-1 gag gene. To limit expression of the mutant Gag polypeptide to HIV-1-infected cells, we have constructed a replication-defective retroviral vector that contains a Rev-responsive element. By using this construct we have obviated problems that can be associated with constitutive expression of an exogenous gene, an important step toward developing a human therapy. In uncloned T lymphocytes infected (transduced) with this retroviral construct, HIV-1 replication was inhibited by 94% with a concomitant decrease in the cytopathic effects of the virus. In addition, simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) replication was also shown to be significantly inhibited, suggesting that this mutant Gag protein may have antiviral efficacy against a broad range of primate lentiviruses and that an SIV/macaque model can be used for further in vivo studies. These results have important implications in assessing the potential of somatic gene therapy in the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
