Role of pre-stroke immunity in ischemic stroke mechanism among patients with HIV.
Article in AIDS care, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Individuals with HIV are at a higher risk of stroke compared to uninfected populations. The role of HIV-related immunosuppression in stroke mechanism is uncertain. Our aim is to test the hypothesis that stroke mechanisms among HIV+ individuals vary according to preceding CD4 counts. We carried out a retrospective chart review of inpatient admissions for ICD-9 defined ischemic events (TIA or stroke) in HIV+ individuals from 2002 to 2016 at a tertiary care center. Stroke mechanisms were ascertained based on radiographic and clinical presentation, and adjudicated by the treating team and confirmed separately by a vascular neurologist. Vascular risk factors, use of antiretroviral drugs (ARVs), nadir CD4 and current CD4 counts (cells/mm
