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

Dolutegravir (DTG)-based antiretroviral therapy is the contemporary first-line therapy to treat HIV infection. Despite its efficacy, mounting evidence has suggested a higher risk of neuropsychiatric adverse effect (NPAE) associated with DTG use, with a limited understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Our laboratory has previously reported a toxic effect of DTG but not bictegravir (BTG) in disrupting the blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity. The current study aimed to investigate the underlying mechanism of DTG toxicity. Primary cultures of mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells were treated with DTG and BTG at therapeutically relevant concentrations. RNA sequencing, qPCR, western blot analysis, and cell stress assays (Ca
