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

Recent work has demonstrated the existence of a systemic interaction between didanosine (ddI) and tenofovir disoproxyl fumarate (TDF) that leads to a significant increase in plasma ddI levels when coadministered with TDF (40 to 50% increase). These two drugs are, respectively, nucleoside and nucleotide analogues of adenosine and efficiently inhibit the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcriptase when transformed to their triphosphate moieties in the intracellular (IC) medium (ddA-TP and TFV-DP, respectively). Since ddI and TDF partly share the same IC metabolic pathway leading to the active triphosphates, we investigated a putative IC interaction. We used high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry techniques to determine ddA-TP and TFV-DP IC levels in HIV-infected patients cotreated with both drugs, in comparison with patients treated with just one of the two drugs. These measurements revealed no significant differences in IC levels of the corresponding triphosphates when ddI (250 mg, once a day [QD]) was coadministered with TDF (300 mg, QD) compared to ddI 400 mg (QD) administered without TDF, thus supporting the dose adaptation proposed for this combination. However, we observed that both ddA-TP and TFV-DP have very long IC half-lives, resulting in unusual IC pharmacokinetic profiles with no significant changes in triphosphate concentrations between two dosings. In the case of TFV-DP, this t(1/2) of elimination was roughly estimated to be 180 h (7.5 days). This characteristic is certainly interesting in terms of efficacy but could have some drawbacks in terms of virus resistance for patients discontinuing these drugs.
