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

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) subtype has been shown to be associated with disease progression. We compared cognitive function between individuals infected with HIV-1 subtype G and CRF02_AG in Nigeria. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, samples were analyzed from 146 antiretroviral-naive participants. Genotypic analysis of plasma HIV RNA was performed by nested polymerase chain reaction of protease and reverse transcriptase genes, and sequences were aligned with curated HIV-1 subtype references. Cognitive status was determined using demographically adjusted T scores and global deficit score (GDS) obtained from a comprehensive neuropsychological test battery. Results: A total of 76 (52.1%) participants were infected with CRF02_AG, 48 (32.8%) with subtype G, and 22 (15.1%) with other HIV-1 strains. In a multivariable linear regression adjusting for plasma HIV RNA, CD4 count, and depression score, mean global T score was lower among subtype G-infected compared with CRF02_AG-infected participants (mean difference, -3.0 [95% confidence interval {CI}, -5.2, to -.7]; P = .011). Also, T scores were significantly lower among subtype G- than CRF02_AG-infected participants for the speed of information processing, executive function, and verbal fluency ability domains. Adjusting for similar variables in a logistic regression, the odds of global cognitive impairment (GDS ≥0.5) were 2.2 times higher among subtype G compared with CRF02_AG-infected participants (odds ratio, 2.2 [95% CI, .9-5.4]; P = .078). Conclusions: Cognitive performance was significantly worse among antiretroviral-naive individuals with HIV-1 subtype G vs CRF02_AG infection. Further studies are required to characterize the mechanistic basis for these differences.
