Supporting the Art: Medication Adherence Patterns in Persons Prescribed Ingestible Sensor-enabled Oral Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis to Prevent Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection.
Article in Clinical infectious diseases : an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
backgroundTimely, accurate adherence data may support oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) success and inform prophylaxis choice. We evaluated a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved digital health feedback system (DHFS) with ingestible-sensor-enabled (IS) tenofovir-disoproxil-fumarate plus emtricitabine (Truvada®) in persons starting oral PrEP.
methodsHuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-negative adults were prescribed IS-Truvada® with DHFS for 12 weeks to observe medication taking behavior. Baseline demographics, urine toxicology, and self-report questionnaires were obtained. Positive detection accuracy and adverse events were computed as percentages, with Kaplan Meier Estimate for persistence-of-use. In participants persisting ≥28 days, adherence patterns (taking and timing) were analyzed, and mixed-effects logistic regression modeled characteristics associated with treatment adherence.
resultsSeventy-one participants were enrolled, mean age 37.6 years (range 18-69), 90.1% male, 77.5% White, 33.8% Hispanic, 95.8% housed, and 74.6% employed. Sixty-three participants (88.7%) persisted ≥28 days, generating 4987 observation days, average 79.2 (29-105). Total confirmed doses were 86.2% (95% confidence interval [CI] 82.5, 89.4), decreasing over time, odds ratio (OR) 0.899 (95% CI .876, .923) per week, P < .001; 79.4% (95% CI 66.7%, 87.3%) of participants had ≥80% adherence. Pattern analysis showed days without confirmed doses clustered (P = .003); regular dose timing was higher among participants with ≥80% confirmed doses (0.828, 95% CI .796 to .859) than among those with <80% (0.542, 95% CI95 .405 to .679) P < .001. In multi-predictor models, better adherence was associated with older age, OR 1.060 (95% CI 1.033, 1.091) per year, P < .001; negative vs positive methamphetamine screen, OR 5.051 (95% CI 2.252, 11.494), P < .001.
conclusionsDHFS with IS-Truvada® distinguished adherent persons from those potentially at risk of prophylactic failure. Ongoing methamphetamine substance use may impact oral PrEP success.
