Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Reveals Signs of Subclinical Myocardial Inflammation in Asymptomatic HIV-Infected Patients.
Article in Circulation. Cardiovascular imaging, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 64 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
backgroundPeople living with chronic HIV infection are at an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. With this study, we aimed to determine the extent of cardiovascular involvement in asymptomatic HIV-infected patients by a comprehensive cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) approach. METHODS AND
resultsAsymptomatic patients with chronic HIV infection undergoing combination antiretroviral therapy (n=28) and control subjects (n=22) underwent CMR. HIV-infected patients were successfully controlled for the disease with a consistent plasma viremia of <200 copies/mL (mean CD4(+)-cell count, 475.1±307.9 cells/μL). CMR protocol allowed for the determination of cardiac function, myocardial inflammation, myocardial fibrosis, aortic stiffness, and pericardial fat volume. When compared with healthy controls, HIV-infected patients showed alterations in left ventricular function as demonstrated by a lower ejection fraction (60.9±7.1% versus 65.2±5.5%; P=0.023) and lower global peak systolic longitudinal and circumferential strain values (longitudinal strain, -17.7±3.4% versus -20.2±3.2%, circumferential strain, -21.2±4.6% versus -24.7±5.1%; P<0.001, respectively). CMR parameters indicating myocardial inflammation were elevated in HIV-infected patients (native T1 relaxation times, 1128.3±53.4 ms versus 1086.5±54.5 ms; P=0.009; relative T2 signal intensity ratio, 1.6±0.3 versus 1.4±0.3; P=0.046; early gadolinium enhancement ratio, 3.1±1.2 versus 2.1±0.6; P=0.003). Myocardial fibrosis, predominantly at the subepicardium of the midventricular and basal inferolateral wall, was prevalent in 82.1% of HIV-infected patients, but only in 27.3% of healthy controls (P<0.001).
conclusionsComprehensive CMR revealed a high burden of cardiovascular disease in asymptomatic HIV-infected patients. Subclinical myocardial inflammation as detected by CMR may be a potential precursor of the increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality observed in patients with chronic HIV infection.
