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

backgroundAntiretroviral therapy-linked metabolic abnormalities have become a growing concern among people living with HIV. There is limited data regarding the effects of dolutegravir-based treatment on blood glucose levels and serum lipid profiles in people living with HIV in Ethiopia. Thus, this study aimed to assess blood glucose levels and serum lipid profiles among people living with HIV on dolutegravir-based versus efavirenz-based therapy. METHOD AND MATERIALS: An institutional-based comparative cross-sectional study was conducted from 30 June 2021 to 30 August 2021. A total of 128 participants (64 in the dolutegravir-based group and 64 in the efavirenz-based group) were enrolled in the study. The Chi-square, independent

resultThe prevalence of hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia were 17.2% (11/64) and 79.7% (51/64) in the dolutegravir group, and 9.4% (6/64) and 75% (48/64) in the efavirenz group, respectively. The efavirenz group had significantly higher mean values of total cholesterol (190.73 ± 44.13 vs. 175.27 ± 37.67 mg/dl,

conclusionEfavirenz-based therapy resulted in higher mean values of total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein as compared with dolutegravir-based therapy. It is important to consider and evaluate high-density lipoprotein levels in HIV patients on dolutegravir-based therapy, and total cholesterol levels in people living with HIV on efavirenz-based therapy.
