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

backgroundMore than one-quarter of 2016 HIV diagnoses among blacks in the United States occurred among persons aged 15-24 years, and three-quarters were among men. Although the prevalence of viral suppression in all tests in the past 12 months (durable viral suppression) among persons receiving HIV care increased from 58% to 68% during 2009-2013, we do not know whether this same improvement was observed among young black men receiving care.

methodsWe analyzed the 2009-2014 Medical Monitoring Project data collected from 336 black men aged 18-24 years. We estimated the proportion of young black men receiving HIV care who were prescribed antiretroviral therapy (ART), adherent to ART, and durably virally suppressed. We assessed changes in clinical outcomes over time and their association with patient characteristics, health behaviors, and depression.

resultsDuring 2009-2014, 80% of young black men receiving HIV care were prescribed ART, 73% were adherent to ART, and 36% had durable viral suppression. There was no significant change in viral suppression over this period. ART prescription and durable viral suppression were significantly higher among those receiving the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program assistance compared with those who did not. Durable viral suppression was significantly lower among those who used drugs compared with those who did not.

conclusionsViral suppression among young black men during 2009-2014 was lower than that among the overall population receiving HIV care in 2013 (36% vs. 68%). Increasing viral suppression is essential to improve health and reduce HIV transmissions in this key population.
