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

Currently, the Southern United States has the highest rates of new HIV diagnoses with the largest percentage of people living with HIV (PLWH), and the most Americans dying from the disease. Given the increase of the HIV epidemic in the Deep South and the availability of evidence-based self-management tools for PLWH, we conducted an in-person survey in Birmingham, Alabama, to understand the symptom profile and the use of technology by PLWH. Muscle aches or joint pain was the most frequently (67%) reported symptom followed by fatigue, sleep difficulties, neuropathy, and depressive symptoms. We also assessed mobile technology use and ownership and found that 83.7% of persons own a smartphone, with most of these (79.9%) being Android users. Given these findings, there is strong scientific premise to support the feasibility of a mobile-delivered symptom self-management tool in the Deep South for improving health outcomes for PLWH.
