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
backgroundContinued use of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), an antiretroviral drug, causes renal function decline and tubular damage in individuals with HIV. While tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) may have less damaging effects, it causes weight gain and abnormal lipid metabolism.
methodsThis single-center, retrospective cohort study used medical records from the National Hospital Organization Sendai Medical Center to investigate renal function of Japanese HIV-1-positive individuals who switched from TDF to antiretroviral therapy including TAF by 2017. The endpoints were: estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), urinary β2 microglobulin (Uβ2MG), weight, and lipid metabolism parameters at 288 weeks after switching. Possible correlation between eGFR and Uβ2MG and factors affecting eGFR decline were examined.
resultsSixty patients switched from TDF to TAF and continued therapy for 288 weeks. eGFR showed a significant decline after 144 weeks, although it was controlled from the time of change until 96 weeks. In the renal impairment group, the decline was suppressed until week 288. Uβ2MG continued to decrease significantly after 48 weeks. However, the suggested correlation between eGFR and Uβ2MG disappeared when patients switched from TDF to TAF. Weight and lipid metabolic parameters increased significantly at 48 weeks and were maintained. Factors associated with decreased eGFR were: history of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) and Uβ2MG. However, considering the odds ratio, the switch from TDF to TAF suppressed the eGFR decline in the group with a history of AIDS, and Uβ2MG had no effect on the eGFR decline.
conclusionsSwitching from TDF to TAF for the long term slows eGFR decline, decreases Uβ2MG levels, and reduces worsening of renal function. Weight gain and abnormal lipid metabolism may occur in the short term but are controllable.
