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

The outer envelope of the extracellular form of vaccinia virus (EEV) is derived from the Golgi membrane and contains at least six viral proteins. Transfection studies indicated that the EEV protein encoded by the B5R gene associates with Golgi membranes when synthesized in the absence of other viral products. A domain swapping strategy was then used to investigate the possibility that the B5R protein contains an EEV targeting signal. We constructed chimeric genes encoding the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 glycoprotein with the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains replaced by the corresponding 42-amino-acid C-terminal segment of the B5R protein. Recombinant vaccinia viruses that stably express a chimeric B5R-HIV protein or a control HIV envelope protein with the original cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains were isolated. Cells infected with recombinant vaccinia viruses that expressed either the unmodified or the chimeric HIV envelope protein formed syncytia with cells expressing the CD4 receptor for HIV. However, biochemical and microscopic studies demonstrated that the HIV envelope proteins with the B5R cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains were preferentially targeted to the EEV. These data are consistent with the presence of EEV localization signals in the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains of the B5R protein.
