Black:White Disparities in HIV Mortality in the United States: 1990-2009.
Article in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
objectivesThe aim of this study was to assess whether racial disparities in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) mortality in the USA have changed over time.
methodsUsing vital records from the National Center for Health Statistics and census data from the US Census Bureau, we calculated the race- and gender-specific HIV mortality rates and corresponding racial rate ratios for non-Hispanic Blacks and non-Hispanic Whites in the USA for four 5-year increments from 1990-2009. Rates were age-adjusted using the 2000 USA standard population. Additionally, we calculated excess Black deaths for 2005-2009.
resultsFor the total, male, and female populations, we observed a statistically significant increase in the Black:White HIV mortality disparity between T1 (1990-1994) and T4 (2005-2009). The increasing disparity was due to the fact that the decrease in mortality rates from T1 to T4 was greater among Whites than Blacks. This disparity led to 5603 excess Black deaths in the USA at T4.
conclusionsPrevious research suggests that as HIV becomes more treatable, racial disparities widen, as observed in this study for both men and women. Existing disparities could be ameliorated if access to care were equal among these groups. Equal access would enable more individuals to achieve viral suppression, the final step of the HIV Care Continuum.
