Early changes in the gut microbiome among HIV-infected Individuals in Uganda initiating daily TMP/SMX.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 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
Daily cotrimoxazole (TMP/SXT) prophylaxis is part of the HIV treatment package for all new HIV-infected individuals in Uganda. Although this treatment has shown reduced morbidity and mortality in HIV, it remains controversial due to its contribution to developing antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Moreover, the effects of daily use of a broad-spectrum antibiotic on the gut microbiome remain unknown. To study the early effects, we analysed shotgun metagenome sequence data from stool samples of five newly HIV-infected individuals initiating TMP/SXT prophylaxis longitudinally for the first 30 days of treatment. Using shotgun metagenomics sequencing, we generated both taxonomic and functional profiles from each patient and compared gut microbial changes Pre- TMP/SXT and post-TMP/SXT on Day 5, Day 14, and Day 30. Daily TMP/SXT prophylaxis resulted in a shift characterised by an enrichment of
