Quantification of nine antiretroviral drugs in cerebrospinal fluid: An approach to overcome sample collection tube adsorption.
Article in Journal of chromatography. B, Analytical technologies in the biomedical and life sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
A highly sensitive LC-MS/MS methods were developed and validated to quantify nine antiretrovirals (atazanavir [ATV], tenofovir [TFV], emtricitabine [FTC], darunavir [DRV], dolutegravir [DTG], efavirenz [EFV], lamivudine [3TC], raltegravir [RAL], and ritonavir [RTV]) in human cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). The approach remedies adsorption issues caused by polypropylene based sample collection tubes. 1% ammonium hydroxide in methanol was added in an amount equal to the volume of each quality control (QC) or patient sample. Protein precipitation was utilized with a CSF sample volume of 100 μL and a 100 μL of methanol:ACN and vortexed. Chromatographic separation was achieved with a 3 × 100 ACE® C18 column for ATV, DRV, DTG, EFV, RTV and RAL, and a 2 × 100 Polar RP column for TFV/FTC/3TC. Mobile phase was methanol:water:formic acid (70:30:0.1, v/v/v) for ATV, DRV, DTG, EFV and RTV (10 uL injection, flow rate: 1.00 mL/min), ACN:water:formic acid (35:65:0.1, v/v/v) for RAL (50 uL injection, flow rate: 1.00 mL/min), ACN:water:formic acid (2:98:0.1, v/v/v) for TFV, FTC and 3TC (50 uL injection, flow rate: 0.35 mL/min). Column temperature was 40° C across all assays. The mass spectrometer was operated in positive, multiple-reaction-monitoring (MRM) mode with electrospray ionization (ESI) for all analytes with the exception of EFV, which was operated in negative, MRM mode with ESI. The assay was linear over the calibration range of 1 to 250 ng/mL for all analytes. The addition of 1% ammonium hydroxide in sample tubes overcame up to 44% negative bias in QC samples and allowed the methods to meet full validation criteria.
