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

Advancements in the scientific understanding of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and care of those afflicted have progressed to make HIV a chronic disease and significantly extend the lives of HIV patients. Subsequently, an aging population has emerged, with the conditions inherent with advanced years, including organ failure. Organ transplantation is an accepted modality for organ failure; however, it was felt to be contraindicated in HIV patients because HIV was an ultimately fatal condition that would be hastened by additional immune suppression. Highly active antiretroviral therapy has dramatically altered that mind-set. After limited early experience and a recent large national trial, HIV organ transplantation has gained a degree of acceptance. This article will review the progress and unresolved issues.
