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

We used the US-based MarketScan(®) Medicaid Multi-state Databases to determine the un-weighted proportion of publically insured persons with HIV that were retained, continued, and re-engaged in care. Persons were followed for up to 84 months. Cox proportional hazards models were conducted to determine factors associated with gaps in care. Of the 6463 HIV cases identified in 2006, 61% were retained during the first 24 months, and 53% continued in care through 78 months. Between 8% and 30% experienced a gap in care, and 59% of persons who experienced a gap in care later re-engaged in care. Persons with one or more Charlson co-morbidities (HR 0.72, 95% CI 0.64-0.81), ages 40-59 (0.79, 0.71-0.88), mental illness diagnosis (0.79, 0.72-0.87), hepatitis C co-infection (0.83, 0.75-0.93), and female sex (0.86, 0.78-0.94) were less likely to experience a gap in care. Between 27% and 38% of those not retained in care continued to receive HIV-related laboratory services. This Medicaid claims database combines features of both clinic visits-based and surveillance lab-based surrogate measures to give a more complete picture of engagement in care than single-facility-based studies.
