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

backgroundThe regimen of raltegravir (RAL), ritonavir-boosted darunavir (DAR/r), and etravirine (ETR) for HIV treatment-experienced patients in a non-clinical trial setting in the rural/semi-urban United States had not been evaluated.

objectiveA retrospective cohort analysis was performed of adult patients prescribed the regimen from 2008 to 2013 at a HIV clinic serving such a population.

resultsIn all, 51 patients met inclusion criteria including 15 with suppressed viral loads at regimen initiation. Of the 36 patients with detectable viral loads, 22 (61.1%) achieved a plasma HIV-1 RNA level < 50 copies/ml at 28 weeks and 17 maintained viral suppression at 56 weeks (50% of those surviving without death). Of 42 patients with long-term follow-up, mean of 216 ± 83 weeks following regimen initiation, 31 (73.8%) had viral suppression. Suppression was significantly more likely in those patients that maintained adherence.

conclusionsIn a non-urban clinic population from the United States with considerable treatment experience, the combination of RAL, DAR/r, and ETR was well tolerated and resulted in viral suppression in those that maintained adherence. Future prospective studies may better define the role of such a regimen in the context of revised recommendations for first-line medications in the HIV treatment naïve.
