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

Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), prodrug of tenofovir (TFV), is one of the most widely used nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) for the treatment of HIV infection in resource-rich and resource-limited settings with proven efficacy and safety, and also for the treatment of hepatitis B infections. However, TDF can cause renal proximal tubular dysfunction and also reduces estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) more than other NRTIs. To date, TDF-associated renal dysfunction is generally regarded as mild and tolerable. However, it is notable that low body weight is one of the risk factors for TFV nephrotoxicity and that Asians are generally of smaller body stature and can be susceptible to such nephrotoxicity, as shown in several cohort studies. Until tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), another prodrug of TFV with minimal renal toxicity, becomes widely accessible for people living with HIV and replaces TDF, it is warranted that physicians who prescribe TDF have a good understanding of TFV nephrotoxicity. This paper reviews recent literature on TFV nephrotoxicity among people living with HIV especially focusing on Asians who might be susceptible to TFV nephrotoxicity due to their lower body weight and discusses implications for clinical care and future directions.
