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

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection of CD4-positive lymphocytes is accompanied by acute cytopathic effects, i.e., syncytium formation and single-cell lysis. Syncytium formation involves cell-cell fusion mediated by viral envelope glycoproteins on the surface of infected cells and by CD4 glycoproteins on adjacent cells. The molecular basis for the lysis of single-HIV-1 infected cells is unclear. Here we report that the expression of functional envelope glycoproteins from primary and laboratory-adapted HIV-1 isolates resulted in the lysis of single CD4-positive lymphocytes. As was previously observed in HIV-1 infected cultures, single-cell lysis in this system primarily involved necrosis and was not inhibited by soluble CD4. Binding of the viral envelope glycoproteins to the CD4 glycoprotein facilitated, but was not sufficient for, cytolysis. Importantly, the ability of the HIV-1 envelope glycoproteins to mediate membrane fusion was essential for single-cell killing. By contrast, the long cytoplasmic tail of the gp41 transmembrane envelope glycoprotein was neither necessary nor sufficient for single-cell lysis. These results suggest that intracellular envelope glycoprotein-CD4 interactions initiate autofusion events that disrupt cell membrane integrity, leading to single-cell lysis by HIV-1.
