Bridging the gap between adult and paediatric outcomes in HIV-1 vertically infected children: a single-centre comparison with adult data.
Article in Acta paediatrica (Oslo, Norway : 1992), 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
unlabelledPrognosis of HIV-1 infection dramatically improved during the last decade. Meanwhile, treatment-induced virological success has always been different in adult and children patients.
aimTo compare 10 years of follow up in HIV-1 vertically infected children and adult patients.
methodsMonocentric retrospective longitudinal analysis of vertically HIV-1-infected children and adult patients followed in the Nice University Hospital between 1999 and 2008. Immunological, virological and antiretroviral treatment data were recorded.
resultsForty children and 1752 adult patients were included. Between 1996 and 2008, the percentage of children receiving HAART increased from 3.2% to 91%. Mean CD4% in the paediatric group remained stable between 29 +/- 8.1% in 1998 and 30 +/- 9.4% in 2008. Mean adult CD4-cell count significantly increased from 410 in 1998 to 556 cells/mL in 2008. Logistic regression analysis showed that the children-to-adult difference for indetectability (HIV PCR-RNA below 400 copies/mL) was significant (p < 0.0001) with an odds ratio of 0.61 (CI(95th): 0.52-0.72). Year-to-patient interaction was also significant with a decreasing divergence over time (p: 0.038).
conclusionNowadays as in adult patients, the control of HIV-1 replication is achieved in nearly eight of 10 children and the percentage of patients with severe immunodeficiency dramatically decreased compared with the mid 1990s.
