Low Papanicolaou smear screening rate of women with HIV infection: a nationwide population-based study in Taiwan, 2000-2010.

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
backgroundWomen infected by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have a higher risk of contracting cervical cancer. Recent guidelines recommend that all HIV-positive women should receive two Pap smears in the first year after their HIV diagnosis.
methodsThis was a population-based cohort study, and the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) in Taiwan was used to estimate the Pap smear screening rate for 1449 HIV-infected women aged 18 years and over from 2000 to 2010. A multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with HIV-infected women who had received Pap smears.
resultsOf 1449 women, 618 (43%) women received at least one Pap smear. Only 14.7% of the HIV-infected women received Pap smears within one year after being diagnosed with HIV. A logistic regression analysis showed that the factors associated with receiving at least one Pap smear after HIV diagnosis were increasing age (AOR 1.04, 95% CI 1.03-1.05), high monthly income (AOR 1.83, 95% CI 1.51-2.23), any history of antiretroviral therapy (AOR 1.78, 95% CI 1.38-2.29), retention in HIV care (AOR 1.36, 95% CI 1.04-1.77), a history of sexually transmitted diseases (AOR 1.96, 95% CI 1.50-2.56), and any history of treatment for opportunistic infections (AOR 2.46, 95% CI 1.91-3.16).
conclusionsA great need exists to develop strategies for promoting receipt of Pap smear screening services that specifically target severely disadvantaged women with HIV, particularly younger, lower income women and those in an asymptomatic phase.
