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

This open-label study enrolled five subjects with biopsy-proven cirrhosis and moderate to severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh classification grade B or C) and five age- and gender-matched controls. All subjects received a single 40-mg oral dose of stavudine (d4T). Stavudine pharmacokinetics in subjects with hepatic impairment were similar to those in age- and gender-matched control subjects and were not substantially different from those previously observed in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients. Based on these findings, stavudine use does not require modification of the dose or dosing interval for patients with liver disease.
