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

Reverse transcription of HIV-1, without detergent or amphipathic peptide-induced permeability of the viral envelope, has been demonstrated to occur in the intact HIV-1 virion. In this report, we demonstrate that the amphipathic domains in the C terminus of the transmembrane glycoprotein (gp41) account for the natural permeability of the HIV-1 envelope to deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates, the substrates for DNA polymerization. In addition, nonphysiological deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates, such as 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine 5'-triphosphate and 3'-deoxythymidine 5'-triphosphate, can also penetrate the viral envelope, incorporate into, and irreversibly terminate reverse transcripts. As a result, viral infectivity is potently inhibited. Since the lentiviral envelope with these newly demonstrated characteristics can serve as a delivery pathway for anti-reverse transcription agents, we propose a unique strategy to prevent HIV-1 interand, possibly, intrahost transmission.
