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 sought to determine whether the intracellular activation of zidovudine (ZDV) varied over time and with previous antiretroviral exposure in human immunodeficiency virus-infected individuals and to examine whether there is an association between virological responses and intracellular phosphorylation. A total of 23 patients (12 treatment naïve, 11 previously treated with ZDV) who commenced ZDV as part of dual nucleoside therapy were prospectively monitored for 12 months or until withdrawal from the study. No association was observed between virological responses at 2 weeks and 3 months and ZDV phosphorylation. The mean intracellular concentrations of ZDV mono-, di-, and triphosphates did not change significantly over time or with previous ZDV exposure. The rate of formation of total ZDV phosphates was increased in patients with CD4 counts <100 cells/mm(3). Previous reports from in vitro cell culture experiments or cross-sectional cohort studies suggesting alterations of ZDV phosphorylation over time are not confirmed by this longitudinal study.
