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

We have constructed a series of vectors based on simian foamy virus type 1 (SFV-1) to define the minimum cis-acting elements required for gene transfer. To characterize these vectors, we inserted the coding sequence of the bacterial lacZ gene linked to the cytomegalovirus immediate-early gene promoter. Introduction of a deletion mutation in the leader region between the 5' long terminal repeat and the start of the gag gene at position 1659 to 1694 completely abrogated gene transfer by the SFV-1 vector. Deletion of 39 nucleotides from position 1692 to 1731 in the leader region resulted in a significant reduction in the transducing-particle titer. Furthermore, we have identified a second cis-acting element located at the 3' end of the pol gene between position 6486 and 6975 to be critical for SFV-1 vector transduction. These results identify the two important cis-acting elements required for SFV-1 vector construction, and the finding of a cis-acting element in the pol gene is unique among retroviruses.
