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 CNS serves as an important sanctuary site for HIV replication. The presence of HIV in this compartment may contribute to neurological complications in individuals infected with HIV. Understanding the CNS penetration capabilities of available antiretroviral agents may help clinicians to design treatment regimens with neuroprotective effects. Although numerous clinical studies and anecdotal reports have examined CSF antiretroviral drug exposure as a marker of CNS penetration, understanding the clinical relevance of these findings is difficult. Challenges with study design and subject recruitment often limit the investigator's ability to collect comprehensive data. Upon review of available data, the antiretroviral agents zidovudine, stavudine, lamivudine, nevirapine, efavirenz and indinavir demonstrate consistent penetration into the CSF. Zidovudine-, stavudine-, lamivudine-, didanosine- and protease inhibitor-based regimens also appear to suppress CSF viraemia or improve HIV neurological disease. These agents may be appropriate candidates for neuroprotective antiretroviral treatment regimens. Despite these data, several unanswered questions about the CSF antiretroviral drug exposure-response relationship still remain. Prospective, controlled studies examining this relationship are needed before absolute clinical recommendations are founded.
