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

HIV-1 subtype and viral load set point have been implicated as strong predictors of HIV-1 disease progression; however, the relationship between these two variables has not been investigated. We used data from the Rakai Community Cohort Study to investigate whether the association between viral load set point and disease progression is modified by HIV subtype. Time to AIDS or AIDS-related death was estimated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis stratified by subtype and viral set point, and Cox proportional hazards regression with an interaction term between viral load set point and HIV subtype. The interaction term did not indicate effect measure modification between viral load set point and progression to AIDS by HIV-1 subtype [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR), 0.99; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.61-1.61; p = .968]. Stratifed analysis by subtype was also not indicative of a difference in relationship between viral load set point and time to AIDS with overlapping 95% CIs between subtypes A and D (subtype A aHR: 2.40, 95% CI 1.45-3.99, subtype D aHR: 1.96, 95% CI 1.60-2.40). These results indicate that the higher mortality in subtype D-infected individuals is independent of viral load set point.
