HIV viral kinetics and T cell dynamics in antiretroviral naïve persons starting an integrase strand transfer inhibitor and protease inhibitor regimen.
Trial report in HIV clinical trials, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundNucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI)-sparing regimens may potentially minimize antiretroviral (ART) toxicities, but demonstrate mixed efficacy and toxicity results. The impact of an integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) and protease inhibitor (PI) regimen on HIV viral dynamics and T cell kinetics remains underdescribed.
objectiveTo compare the effect of raltegravir + ritonavir boosted lopinavir (RAL + LPV/r) to efavirenz/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine (EFV/TDF/FTC) on HIV kinetics and T cell dynamics.
methodsFifty participants naïve to ART underwent HIV viral kinetic sampling evaluated using biexponential mixed effects modeling. A subset of 28 subjects (with complete viral suppression) underwent flow cytometry and evaluation of soluble markers of inflammation at weeks 0, 4, and 48 of ART.
resultsRAL + LPV/r compared to EFV/TDF/FTC resulted in a prolonged first phase viral decay rate (18 vs. 13 days p < 0.01). From weeks 0 to 4, RAL + LPV/r was associated with a trend toward greater decreases in activated CD4
conclusionsThe prolonged first phase viral decay observed with RAL + LPV/r in persons starting ART did not result in differences in viral suppression at week 48. We also observed trends in declines in certain cellular markers of immune activation but it remains unclear if this could translate to long-term immunologic benefits in persons on an INSTI + PI.
