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

backgroundDolutegravir (DTG)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) is a preferred first-line treatment for HIV/AIDS, but concerns about adverse drug events (ADEs) persist. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of ADEs and identify associated independent risk factors among Thai people living with HIV (PLWH) on DTG-based regimens for at least one year.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study examined 1,270 Thai individuals living with HIV receiving a DTG/3TC/TDF regimen for ≥ 1 year at a secondary care hospital between 2021 and 2023. The primary outcome was any ADE (Grade ≥ 1) documented during the first 12 months of DTG therapy. Multivariate logistic regression, adjusted for confounders including sex, was used to identify independent predictors of ADEs.

resultsAmong 1,270 participants, 684 (53.86%) experienced at least one ADE. The cohort was predominantly ART-experienced, with a median duration since HIV diagnosis of 6.00 years (IQR 4.00-9.00 years). The most frequent ADEs included a decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (17.72%), anemia (15.43%), weight gain (9.29%), and nausea (7.80%). Independent risk factors associated with increased ADE odds were: older age (≥ 40 years vs. 18-29 years, global p = 0.040), psychiatric comorbidity (aOR 3.13; 95% CI 1.02-9.56; p = 0.046), history of cryptococcosis (aOR 1.45; 95% CI 1.05-2.13; p = 0.035) ,underweight status (BMI < 18.5 kg/m²) (aOR 2.22; 95% CI 1.50-3.38; p < 0.001), and baseline eGFR < 90 mL/min/1.73m

conclusionsOver half (53.86%) of patients on long-term DTG-based therapy experienced at least one ADE. Risk was significantly elevated in older adults, those with psychiatric illness, previous cryptococcosis, underweight status, or lower baseline eGFR. Healthcare providers should implement proactive monitoring and tailored management strategies for these high-risk patients to optimize ART safety and efficacy outcomes.
