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

Background: The efficacy and safety of bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) have been demonstrated in treatment-naive clinical trials. However, real-world evidence for this regimen in late-presenting patients with HIV-1 (PWH) is lacking. We investigated the virologic and safety outcomes of BIC/FTC/TAF in late-presenting PWH. Methods: This retrospective cohort analysis consisted of late-presenting PWH who initiated an antiretroviral regimen of BIC/FTC/TAF between June 2021 and June 2023. Treatment effectiveness, defined as HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL, was analyzed. Changes in immunologic, metabolic, liver, and renal parameters were evaluated. Late-presenting PWH were defined as surviving PWH with CD4 <200 cells/μL or surviving patients who met the criteria for AIDS-defining conditions with a CD4 ranging from 200 to 499 cells/μL. Results: A total of 130 participants were included in the study. At week 48, 93.8% (122/130) of the patients achieved HIV-1 RNA levels <50 copies/mL. CD4 increased by 150.0 cells/μL, and CD4/CD8 increased by 0.16 ( Conclusions: BIC/FTC/TAF demonstrated robust virologic suppression and tolerability in patients presenting late in the course of HIV infection.
