Death after diagnosis of noncommunicable disease comorbid conditions, stratified by injection drug use.

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
objectiveDescribe all-cause mortality associated with history of injection drug use (IDU) after a validated diagnosis of four noncommunicable disease (NCD) diagnoses: end-stage liver disease (ESLD); end-stage renal disease (ESRD); cancer; or myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke.
designWe followed four cohorts of persons in continuity HIV care in the Johns Hopkins HIV Clinic with a validated diagnosis of ESLD (n = 67), ESRD (n = 187), cancer (n = 424), and MI or stroke (n = 213) from 1996 through approximately 2014.
methodsCrude and adjusted Cox proportional hazards models to estimate hazard ratios for death after a validated diagnosis of one of four NCD diagnoses associated with history of IDU as an HIV acquisition risk factor.
resultsHistory of IDU was not associated with death after ESRD (adjusted hazard ratio 0.98, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.57-1.68). Associations between history of IDU and death after ESLD and MI or stroke were weak, imprecise and not statistically significant (hazard ratio 1.17, 95% CI 0.63-2.19; hazard ratio 1.21, 95% CI 0.80-1.83). History of IDU was not associated with death after cancer in the first 6 months, but subsequently, the adjusted hazard ratio was 2.03 (95% CI 1.26-3.27).
conclusionPersons with a history of injection drug use and non-IDU had strikingly similar risk and hazard of mortality after several major NCD diagnoses. Mortality after cancer diagnosis in this cohort was higher for persons with a history of IDU than those without; this may be because of being diagnosed with a different mix of specific sites and stages of cancers.
