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

backgroundReal-world data on switching from INSTI-based triple therapy to DTG/3TC in the Chinese population are lacking.

methodsThis retrospective study included 214 treatment-experienced patients with HIV from Chongqing Public Health Medical Center (2021-2022) on an INSTI-based triple-drug regimen for ≥6 months who switched to DTG/3TC for >12 months. Patients with pre-existing metabolic diseases were excluded. Participants were categorized: INSTI+TAF-free (

resultsThe INSTI+TAF+COBI group was significantly older (p=0.000). Virological suppression rates (<50 copies/mL) were high at switch (93%, 85.7%, 91.4%). The INSTI+TAF+COBI group had lower eGFR and higher TG, TC, HDL, and LDL at baseline (

conclusionSwitching to DTG/3TC maintained virological suppression and stable immunological outcomes. Patients previously on TAF-containing regimens demonstrated greater metabolic benefits than those on TAF-free regimens, possibly related to baseline TDF effects, requiring further confirmation.
