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

DNA vaccine against human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) can induce substantial levels of HIV-1-specific humoral and cell-mediated immunity. To develop more potent HIV-1 DNA vaccine formulations, we used a murine model to explore the immunomodulatory effects of an interleukin-2 (IL-2) expression plasmid on an HIV-1 DNA vaccine following intranasal administration of the combination. When the vaccine and expression plasmid were incorporated into cationic liposomes and administered to mice, the HIV-1-specific delayed-type hypersensitivity response and cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity were significantly increased. Restimulated immune lymphoid cells showed enhanced production of both IL-2 and interferon-gamma and reduced secretion of IL-4. The level of total antibody to HIV-1 antigen was not greatly changed by coadministration of the DNA vaccine and IL-2 expression plasmid. An analysis of serum HIV-1-specific IgG subclasses showed a significant drop in the IgG1/IgG2a ratio in the group that received the plasmid-vaccine combination. These results demonstrate that the IL-2 expression plasmid strongly enhances the HIV-1-specific immune response via activation of T helper type-1 cells.
