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

With the introduction of potent combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) into clinical practice, HIV-infected patients have garnered much benefit. However, kidney disease continues to be a potential complication in this group. Whereas HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) was the major renal complication prior to cART, co-morbid diseases and adverse renal effects of various drugs, in particular cART, now complicate the landscape. Clinicians now must differentiate HIVAN from cART nephrotoxicity. While sometimes this is easy and relatively straightforward, often the clinician faces a difficult challenge distinguishing these two etiologies of kidney disease. This review will discuss HIVAN and cART-related kidney disease and review the clinical and laboratory data that may be useful in differentiating these processes. Often, however, kidney biopsy may be required to differentiate HIVAN from cART nephrotoxicity as well as other kidney lesions associated with concurrent co-morbidities, both infectious and non-infectious.
