Impact of the time to achieve viral control on the dynamics of circulating HIV-1 reservoir in vertically infected children with long-term sustained virological suppression: A longitudinal study.
Article in PloS one, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
objectiveDetermine the decay rate of HIV-1 DNA reservoir in vertically infected children during sustained viral suppression (VS) and how it is affected by the age at VS.
methodsThis study included 37 HIV-1 vertically infected children on suppressive antiretroviral therapy for at least 4 years. Children were grouped according to the age of antiretroviral therapy initiation (≤0.5 or >0.5 yrs) and to the age at VS (≤1.5, between >1.5 and 4, and >4 years). Decay of cell-associated HIV-1 DNA (CA-HIV-DNA) level and 2-long terminal repeats (2-LTR) circles frequency were analyzed over 4 years of viral suppression using piecewise linear mixed-effects model with two splines and logistic regression, respectively.
resultsCA-HIV-DNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cells had a significant decay during the first two years of VS [-0.26 (95% CI: -0.43, -0.09) log10 copies per one million cells (cpm)/year], and subsequently reached a plateau [-0.06 (95% CI: -0.15, 0.55) log10 cpm/year]. The initial decay was higher in children who achieved VS by 1.5 years of age compared to those who achieved VS between >1.5 and 4 years and those after 4 years of age: -0.51 (95% CI:-0.94, -0.07), -0.35 (95% CI:-0.83, 0.14), and -0.21 (95% CI:-0.39, -0.02) log10cpm PBMC/year, respectively. The 2-LTR circles frequency decayed significantly, from 82.9% at pre-VS to 37.5% and 28.1% at 2 and 4 years of VS, respectively (P = .0009).
conclusionsThese data highlight that achieving VS during the first 18 months of life limit the establishment of HIV-1 reservoirs, reinforcing the clinical benefit of very early effective therapy in children.
