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

To evaluate the treatment outcome of antiretroviral therapy, depending on the use and utility of a concept of resistance-guided switch, patients from the Frankfurt HIV cohort have been followed for 24 weeks. If available, prior resistance data have been evaluated and patients were grouped into their expected viral response. The data of 354 patients were thus analysed, taking into account the genotypic sensitivity score of the administered medication (> or ≤2). When looking at the proportion of patients who achieved a viral load of <50/ml, the response rates differed significantly better for patients with a favourable resistance scoring as compared to an unfavourable one (71.9 % as compared to 56.0 %, p = 0.008). Interestingly, patients with a favourable resistance score also showed a better immunological response, as measured by median CD4 cell count of 391/µl [interquartal range (IQR) 250-530/µl] against 287/µl (IQR 174-449/µl) and a larger total increase of 141/µl against 38/µl. A significant virological and immunological benefit could be demonstrated for patients of a cohort with resistance-guided antiretroviral therapy adjustments.
