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

This study examined whether global HIV-associated neurocognitive impairment (NCI), assessed with the HIV-Dementia Scale (HDS), predicted mortality in an ethnically diverse sample of 209 HIV-positive adults. Participants were predominantly in the mid-range of illness at baseline, and followed over 13-years. At baseline, 31 (15%) participants scored in the NCI range (HDS ≤ 10); 58 (28%) died during follow-up. Baseline NCI was significantly associated with earlier mortality (HR = 2.10, 95% CI [1.10-4.00]) independent of sociodemographic and HIV disease-related covariates. Less errors on the antisaccade task, an index of executive/attention control, was the only HDS subtest predicting earlier mortality (HR = 0.72, 95% CI [0.58-0.90]). In the absence of an AIDS-defining condition, NCI, particularly in the executive/attention domain, is an independent prognostic marker of mortality in a diverse HIV-positive cohort. These findings highlight the clinical utility of brief cognitive screening measures in this population.
