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
backgroundThe relationship between plasma tenofovir (TFV) concentration at the beginning of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) administration and the development of renal dysfunction during long-term administration of TDF has not been demonstrated yet. The objective of the present study was to determine whether plasma TFV trough concentrations during early TDF administration could serve as an indicator of renal dysfunction when TDF is administered for long periods.
methodsWe included 149 HIV-1 infected Japanese patients who were prescribed TDF. We investigated the relationship between plasma TFV trough concentrations and the rate of discontinuation due to the development of renal dysfunction for up to five years after the start of TDF administration. We also examined how the decrease in renal function over time due to TDF administration was related to factors associated with high TFV levels and plasma TFV trough concentrations.
resultsThe median TFV trough concentration in the TDF discontinuation group was 88 ng/mL, which was significantly higher (p = 0.0041), than that in the continuation group (72 ng/mL). Further, using an ROC curve, the cut-off value for TFV trough concentration at which TDF discontinuation was significantly high was found to be 98 ng/mL. Logistic multivariate analysis of factors associated with discontinuation of TDF due to renal function-related adverse events showed that being ≥ 50 years old (OR = 2.96; 95% CI, 1.01-8.64), having eGFR < 80 mL/min/1.73m
conclusionsThe results suggested that the importance of measuring TFV concentrations to evaluate the risk of developing renal function-related adverse events during long-term TDF administration.
