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

Lenacapavir (LEN) is a first-in-class capsid (CA) inhibitor for the treatment and prevention of HIV-1 infection. While LEN has shown potent antiviral activity across all major HIV-1 subtypes, the impact of existing HIV-1 CA sequence diversity on the activity of LEN remains to be determined. Here, we identified natural polymorphisms within the LEN-binding site and assessed each for their impact on viral infectivity and susceptibility to LEN. Using a co-crystal structure of LEN in complex with a CA hexamer, we identified 29 binding site residues within five angstroms of LEN and analyzed each for naturally occurring polymorphisms across a multiclade collection of >10,000 unique HIV-1
