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

backgroundTo date, a definite conclusion about efficiency and safety of tenofovir alafenamide for patients with HIV-1 is not available. The aim of the study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of TAF versus TDF in antiretroviral regimens for patients with HIV-1.

methodsPUBMED, MEDLINE, and EMBASE database were searched in March 2016, with no language restriction, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

resultsSix RCTs (n = 5888) met entry criteria. At week 48, viral suppression rates were similar between TAF and TDF group (90.2% vs 89.5%) for the naive patients. Interestingly, the rate was higher in patients who switched to TAF regimens compared with patients who continued previous TDF regimens (96.4% vs 93.1%). Both groups were generally well tolerated with high barrier to resistance. As compared to TDF, TAF had significantly smaller reductions in eGFR-CG, smaller changes in RBP/Cr and urineβ-2 M/Cr ratio, and less reduction in spine and hip BMD for the treatment-naive patients. Moreover, the switched group had significant efficacy advantages of improving renal function and BMD, including significant decreases in urine albumin/Cr, urine protein/Cr, urine RBP/Cr, and urine β-2 M/Cr ratios, and increases in hip and spine BMD by 1.47% and 1.56%,respectively, as compared with continued TDF regimens.

conclusionsTAF has a similar tolerability, safety, and effectiveness to TDF and probably less adverse events related to renal and bone density outcomes in the treatment of naive and experienced patients with HIV-1.
