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

Nucleotide sequences of the reverse transcriptase (RT) coding region have been compared in four new human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) group O isolates. Phylogenetic analysis of this pol region highlights a cluster of these four HIV-1 group O sequences with seven other group O isolates (5% intracluster nucleotide sequence diversity) similar to clusters classified as subtypes in HIV-1 group M (an average of 4.9% intrasubtype sequence diversity). Based on these analyses, this group O cluster has been designated subtype A-O. A longitudinal study of a heterosexual couple infected with group O (ESP1 and ESP2) allowed a detailed analysis of RT sequences (amino acids 28 to 219). Directed evolution and a slightly higher mutation frequency was observed in the RT sequences of patient ESP2, treated with antiretroviral drugs, than that from the untreated patient ESP1. Antiretroviral treatment also selected for specific substitutions, M184V and T215Y in the RT coding region, conferring resistance to 3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine and zidovudine, respectively. A Gly98 to Glu RT substitution identified in the treated patient suggests a possible reversion of a nonnucleoside RT inhibitor-resistant phenotype. Using RT clones from this longitudinal study, both heteroduplex tracking assay and cloning-sequencing techniques were employed for an extensive genetic analysis of pol gene quasispecies. Amino acid substitutions (i.e., Phe-77 to Leu, Lys-101 to Glu, and Val-106 to Iso) associated with antiretroviral resistance were identified in RT clones from HIV-1 group O-infected patients not subjected to drug therapy or treated with unrelated drugs. Finally, phylogenetic relationships between RT clones of the treated ESP2 patient and those of the untreated ESP1 patient show how drug pressure can direct evolution of viral pol gene quasispecies independently of direct drug-resistant substitutions.
