EFV/FTC/TDF-associated hepatotoxicity: a case report and review.
Review in AIDS patient care and STDs, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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 fixed-dose combination efavirenz, emtricitabine, and tenofovir (EFV/FTC/TDF) is a first-line agent for the treatment of HIV. We report the case of a 40-year-old female with a history of HIV acquired through heterosexual contact who initiated EFV/FTC/TDF. Hepatitis B and C serologies were negative, CD4 cell count was 253 cells per cubic millimeter (15.8%), and HIV viral load was 67,373 copies per milliliter. Eight months later she developed transaminitis and severe right upper quadrant pain. Neither illicit drug abuse nor hepatotoxic medication such as acetaminophen was reported. After evaluation including negative acute viral hepatitis studies, EFV/FTC/TDF was discontinued; both her transaminitis and pain resolved. Hepatotoxicity is most often associated with efavirenz. Rarely, fulminant hepatic failure occurs. Efavirenz-related hepatotoxicity is thought to result from a cellular self-digestion process known as autophagy. This is the first report to our knowledge of EFV/FTC/TDF-related hepatotoxicity.
