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

objectivesWe evaluated the performance of the Elecsys HIV combi PT assay on the cobas e 602 analyzer for diagnosing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV; part of the US Food and Drug Administration [FDA] submission).

methodsThe HIV combi PT and reference (ARCHITECT HIV Ag/Ab Combo) assays were assessed at four independent clinical laboratories/one reference laboratory (United States; July 2014 to November 2015). Clinical performance was evaluated using four reagent lots. Analytical performance was evaluated per Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute EP05-A3 guidelines. Serum/plasma samples from 18 clinical sites/vendors (United States and outside the United States) were tested.

resultsSensitivity (95% confidence interval [CI]) in HIV-1 antibody-positive individuals (United States and outside the United States; n = 1,460) was 100.00% (99.75%-100.00%). Specificity was 99.94% (95% CI, 99.85%-99.98%) in low-risk individuals (United States; n = 6,843), 98.19% (95% CI, 96.93%-99.04%) in high-risk individuals (United States and outside the United States; n = 758), and 97.43% (95% CI, 95.32%-98.76%) in pregnant women (United States and outside the United States; n = 440). Analytical performance was acceptable.

conclusionsWe demonstrate the robustness of the FDA-approved Elecsys HIV combi PT assay on the cobas e 602 analyzer for HIV testing in the United States.
