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

backgroundDarunavir-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) is commonly used in people with HIV who experience adherence challenges and/or have complex resistance patterns. Changes in ART commissioning have led to an increased use of Bictegravir/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF) in these populations despite limited real-world outcome data.

methodsSingle centre, retrospective analysis of virological outcomes in individuals previously treated with Darunavir who initiated B/F/TAF before 01/01/2025. Logistic regression was used to analyse associations with sustained virological suppression (HIV RNA <200 copies/mL) on B/F/TAF.

resultsOf the 223 individuals who initiated B/F/TAF, 207 (median age 52 [40-58] years, 38% female, 69% Black ethnicity, 24% with CD4 < 200 cells/mm

conclusionsSubstituting of Darunavir-based ART with B/F/TAF in this challenging population was associated with treatment-emergent INSTI and NRTI resistance. Historical resistance did not predict virological outcomes and treatment-emergent resistance did not preclude re-suppression on B/F/TAF, suggesting that adherence remains a major barrier to achieving long-term virological success.
