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

With the development of chimeric simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV)-infected macaques as a model for assessing novel human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein (Env)-based vaccine strategies for preventing HIV-1 infection in man, it will be important to determine HIV-1 Env-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses in vaccinated and virus-infected monkeys. To facilitate performing such CTL studies, we have defined two HIV-1 Env CTL epitopes in SHIV-infected rhesus monkeys and characterized the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I alleles that bind these Env peptide fragments and present them to CTL. A 9-amino-acid (aa) fragment of HIV-1 gp4l (p6B, aa 553 to 561) is presented to CD8+ CTLs of SHIV-infected animals by the rhesus monkey HLA-B homolog molecule Mamu-B*12. An 8-aa HIV-1 gpl.20 peptide (p9CD, aa 117 to 124) represents a CTL epitope in rhesus monkeys restricted by the HLA-A homolog MHC allele Mamu-A*08. This gp120 CTL epitope is fully conserved in all simian immunodeficiency virus, HIV-1, and HIV-2 isolates that have been sequenced to date and exhibits functional cross-reactivity. Screening of 14 unselected rhesus monkeys for expression of the two novel MHC class I alleles revealed the presence of each of the alleles in more than 40% of the animals. The characterization of the two HIV-1 Env CTL epitopes and their restricting MHC class I alleles will provide a basis for studying vaccine- and virus-elicited cytotoxic effector cell responses in rhesus monkeys.
