Short Communication: Higher Tenofovir Concentrations in Hair Are Associated with Decreases in Viral Load and Not Self-Reported Adherence in HIV-Infected Adolescents with Second-Line Virological Treatment Failure.
Trial report in AIDS research and human retroviruses, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objective methods of measuring antiretroviral adherence are limited. We assessed the relationship between tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) hair concentrations, self-reported adherence, and virological outcomes in HIV-infected adolescents in Harare, Zimbabwe. HIV-infected adolescents on atazanavir/ritonavir-based second-line treatment for >6 months with viral load (VL) ≥1,000 copies/mL were randomized to either modified directly administered antiretroviral therapy (mDAART) or standard of care. Hair and VL samples were collected at baseline and after 90 days. Treatment outcome was defined as TDF concentrations in hair. Virological suppression was defined as VL <1,000 copies/mL. Thirty-four adolescents had TDF concentrations measured at baseline and follow-up. Mean (median); range age was 16 (16); 13-18 years and 53% were females. Nineteen (56%) were randomized to mDAART. Mean (SD); range TDF concentrations were 0.03 (0.04); 0-0.17 ng/mg hair and 0.06 (0.06); 0-0.3 ng/mg hair at baseline and follow-up, respectively. Higher TDF concentrations were associated with decreased VL [regression coefficient (RC) 0.8; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.7-1.0;
