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

Integrase-strand-transfer inhibitors have transformed HIV therapy, yet the widely prescribed drug dolutegravir (DTG) has been linked to developmental toxicity and its teratogenic mechanism remains uncertain. Here we use zebrafish to dissect DTG toxicity during early vertebrate development. DTG exposure from 2-4 h post-fertilization (hpf) to 24 hpf produced high mortality and abnormal morphology; co-treatment with folic acid or 5-methyltetrahydrofolate partially restored normal morphology, whereas calcium had no effect. Strikingly, supplementation with magnesium (Mg) rescued DTG-exposed embryos almost as effectively as folate, implicating magnesium availability in protection. In competitive binding assays, Mg increased binding of folate to purified folate receptor (FOLR1) by 30% in the presence of DTG. Maternal-zygotic zebrafish
