CYP2B6 Genetic Polymorphisms, Depression, and Viral Suppression in Adults Living with HIV Initiating Efavirenz-Containing Antiretroviral Therapy Regimens in Uganda: Pooled Analysis of Two Prospective Studies.
Article in AIDS research and human retroviruses, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CYP2B6 have been shown to predict variation in plasma efavirenz concentrations, but associations between these SNPs and efavirenz-mediated depression and viral suppression are less well described. We evaluated three SNPs in CYP2B6 (rs3745274, rs28399499, and rs4803419) in Ugandan persons living with HIV. To define exposure, we used previously published pharmacokinetic modeling data to categorize participants as normal, intermediate, and poor efavirenz metabolizers. Our outcomes were probable depression in the first 2 years after antiretroviral therapy (ART) initiation (mean score of >1.75 on the Hopkins Symptom Depression Checklist) and viral suppression 6 months after ART initiation. We fit generalized estimating equation and modified Poisson regression models adjusted for demographic, clinical, and psychosocial characteristics with or without individuals with depression at the time of ART initiation. Among 242 participants, there were no differences in the pre-ART depression or viral load by efavirenz metabolism strata (p > .05). Participants were classified as normal (32%), intermediate (50%), and poor (18%) metabolizers. Seven percent (56/242) of follow-up visits met criteria for depression. Eighty-five percent (167/202) of participants who completed a 6-month visit achieved viral suppression. CYP2B6 metabolizer strata did not have a statistically significant association with either depression [adjusted risk ratio (aRR) comparing intermediate or poor vs. normal, 1.46; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.72-2.95] or 6-month viral suppression (aRR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.88-1.15). However, in analyses restricted to participants without pre-ART depression, poorer CYP2B6 metabolism was associated with increased odds of depression (adjusted odds ratio, 4.11; 95% CI, 1.04-16.20). Efavirenz-metabolizing allele patterns are strongly associated with risk of incident depression. Future work should elucidate further region-specific gene-environment interactions and whether alternate polymorphisms may be associated with efavirenz metabolism.
