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

Tenofovir (TFV) is a widely used and effective treatment for HIV infection. Numerous studies have shown that TFV exposure is associated with small but significant declines in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). However, TFV toxicity is targeted mainly at the proximal tubule (PT), and in severe cases can cause the renal Fanconi syndrome or acute kidney injury. Severe toxicity occurs in a minority of patients, but milder PT dysfunction is more common; the long-term significance of this on kidney and bone health is uncertain. Recent work suggests that changes in eGFR on TFV therapy might be explained by inhibition of PT creatinine secretion rather than actual alterations in glomerular function. Risk factors for nephrotoxicity include pre-existing kidney disease, increased age, and low body mass. Mitochondria in the PT are the targets of TFV toxicity, but the exact mechanisms remain unclear. Substantial improvement of renal function occurs in many patients with TFV toxicity upon stopping therapy, but function does not always return to baseline. In recent years, TFV usage has been extended to new clinical spheres, including pediatrics, resource-poor settings and treatment of hepatitis B infection; theoretical reasons exist as to why some of these patients might be at higher or lower risk of TFV toxicity. Finally, strategies have been proposed to prevent TFV toxicity or enhance recovery.
