The Challenge of and Opportunities for Transitioning and Maintaining a Continuum of Care Among Adolescents and Young Adults Living with HIV in Resource Limited Settings.
Article in Current tropical medicine reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
An unprecedented number of youth living with HIV (YLHIV) are aging into adolescence and young adulthood, increasing concerns about the possibility of these youth being lost in the transition from supported care (sometimes in pediatric settings) to more independent healthcare settings and perhaps furthering the emerging disparities in outcomes (e.g., higher nonadherence to treatment, increased morbidity and mortality). In resource-rich settings where there is likely greater recognition of adolescent cognitive and developmental challenges, transitioning YLHIV to adult healthcare has emerged as a major challenge. In resource limited settings (RLS), where the burden of HIV is significant and healthcare resources often stretched, the challenge to move toward healthcare independence and maintain a fluid continuum of care for YLHIV may be the greatest. We review key issues in transitioning YLHIV in RLS, highlighting steps in the transition process, examining evidence where available, and discussing challenges and opportunities to understanding and optimizing outcomes.
