Strategies for isoniazid preventive therapy in HIV-positive patients who consume alcohol.
Article in The international journal of tuberculosis and lung disease : the official journal of the International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease, 2024. 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
<sec><title>BACKGROUND</title>WHO guidance to defer isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) among those with regular alcohol use because of hepatotoxicity concerns may exclude many people living with HIV (PLWH) at high TB risk in these settings.</sec><sec><title>OBJECTIVE</title>To evaluate hepatotoxicity during TB preventive therapy (TPT) in PLWH who report alcohol use in Uganda over 10 years.</sec><sec><title>METHODS</title>We developed a Markov model of latent TB infection, isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT - a type of TPT), and TB disease using data from the Alcohol Drinkers' Exposure to Preventive Therapy for TB (ADEPTT) study. We modeled several treatment scenarios, including no IPT, IPT with liver enzyme monitoring (AST/ALT) during treatment, and IPT with pre-screening using the tuberculin skin test (TST).</sec><sec><title>RESULTS</title>The no IPT scenario had 230 TB deaths/100,000 population over 10 years, which is more than that seen in any IPT scenario. IPT, even with no monitoring, was preferred over no IPT when population TB disease incidence was >50 in 100,000.</sec><sec><title>CONCLUSIONS</title>For PLWH who report alcohol use in high TB burden settings, IPT should be offered, ideally with regular AST/ALT monitoring. However, even if regular monitoring is not possible, IPT is still preferable to no IPT in almost every modeled scenario.</sec>.
