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

backgroundPersons with HIV infection who do not achieve virologic suppression contribute significantly to the ongoing HIV epidemic and have an increased risk of clinical sequelae related to immunosuppression. The extent to which substance use and mental health diagnoses affect HIV outcomes and the care continuum has not been previously assessed at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), a large academic HIV clinic.

methodsTo address this knowledge gap and identify targets for intervention, we performed a retrospective chart review to examine associations of substance use and mental health diagnoses with hospitalization and virologic suppression.

resultsPatients with substance use or mental health diagnoses had increased rates of hospitalization and lower rates of sustained longitudinal HIV suppression. Prevalence of distinct substance-related disorders differed by race and sex. Although cocaine, alcohol and cannabis use were common, documented opiate use disorder was surprisingly infrequent given the ongoing opioid epidemic in South Carolina.

conclusionsThese data suggest effective assessment and treatment of substance use disorders will help improve the HIV care continuum in South Carolina.
