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

backgroundTenofovir amibufenamide (TMF) has shown antiviral efficacy comparable to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in chronic hepatitis B (CHB), with improved renal and bone safety profiles. While TDF is recognized for its lipid-lowering properties, the long-term effects of TMF on lipid metabolism remain unclear.

aimTo assess lipid changes and long-term safety of TMF in CHB, including outcomes after TDF-to-TMF switch over 144 weeks.

methodsThis retrospective analysis utilized data from a phase III randomized, double-blind trial involving 53 patients with CHB treated with either TMF 25 mg (

resultsAt week 96, both groups achieved comparable virological suppression and maintained stable hepatic and renal function. However, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were significantly higher in the TMF group compared to the TDF group (

conclusionTMF provides sustained antiviral efficacy and maintains a favourable long-term lipid and renal safety profile. These findings support TMF as a viable first-line therapy and a switch option for CHB management in clinical practice.
