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

More HIV-positive patients are living longer and presenting to non-infection specialties with non-HIV-related issues (eg diabetes, heart disease). National recommendations advise routinely offering HIV testing to all new registrants to primary care and all general medical admissions where community prevalence exceeds 2:1000. It is, therefore, imperative that all physicians are educated and competent in HIV infection, counselling and testing. This study aimed to establish regional medical registrars' opinions on teaching provision, and confidence in, HIV medicine. The results indicated a lack of confidence in HIV medicine and, in those without postgraduate rotations in HIV medicine or infectious diseases, a perception that HIV and infection-related teaching provision is inadequate.
