A possible case of bictegravir-associated severe unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia.
Article in AIDS research and therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundBictegravir (BIC) co-formulated with emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) is approved by Federal Food and Drug Administration in 2018 for both treatment-naïve and experienced persons living with HIV (PLWH). CASE PRESENTATION: A young man with recently diagnosed human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection presented with jaundice. Blood work was significant for mild anemia and grade 4 unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. A comprehensive evaluation for hemolytic anemia failed to reveal any etiology. Other causes of hyperbilirubinemia were negative. Four months prior, patient was started on antiretroviral therapy with a single tablet regimen containing bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF), brand name Biktarvy
conclusionSevere hyperbilirubinemia can be found in the patient using BIC/FTC/TAF. The data for this adverse reaction is scarce, and more studies are needed on this possible side effect. The mechanism of unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia by INSTI remains undefined.
