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 positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) is an essential factor that induces transcription elongation and is also negatively regulated by the cellular factor HEXIM1. Previously, the chimeric protein HEXIM1-Tat (HT) was demonstrated to inhibit human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV)-1 transcription. In this study, we attempted to develop an improved antiviral protein that specifically binds viral RNA (vRNA) by fusing HT to HIV-1 nucleocapsid (NC). Thus, we synthesized NC-HEXIM1-Tat (NHT) and HEXIM1-Tat-NC (HTN). NHT and HTN inhibited virus proliferation more effectively than HT, and they did not attenuate the function of HT. Notably, NHT and HTN inhibited the infectivity of the progeny virus, whereas HT had no such effect. NHT and HTN selectively and effectively interacted with vRNA and inhibited the proper packaging of the HIV-1 genome. Taken together, our results illustrated that the novel NC-fused chimeric proteins NHT and HTN display novel mechanisms of anti-HIV effects by inhibiting both HIV-1 transcription and packaging.
