HIV/AIDS and Colorectal Cancer: A Review in the Era of Antiretrovirals.
Article in Gastroenterology & hepatology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Since the discovery of HIV/AIDS and the introduction of antiretroviral therapy, there have been many observations regarding the causes of HIV/AIDS deaths, opportunistic infections, and coexisting diseases such as non-AIDS-defining malignancies. The bulk of the literature worldwide has been epidemiologic and has involved cross-linkage of both HIV/AIDS and cancer registries. Prior retrospective studies have also utilized death certificates. Initial large-scale studies have not identified an increased risk of colon cancer in the HIV/AIDS population, and scrutiny of the literature has elucidated major limitations, most notably the lack of screening data. Only recently have there been studies addressing the rate of colon cancer screening in the HIV/AIDS population. There have also been reports suggesting an elevated risk and earlier age of onset of colonic neoplasia in the HIV/AIDS population. This review summarizes literature from the last two decades regarding HIV/AIDS and colorectal cancer and endeavors to stimulate interest in further investigation of a possible association.
