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
objectiveThe aim of this study is to describe the HIV population admitted to a tertiary level hospital and analyze hospital admission and mortality causes during hospitalization.
methodsObservational, retrospective study carried out in a third level Hospital. Inclusion criteria: Patients ≥18 years with a prescription of ART and diagnosis of HIV known or discovered during admission. It was accepted hospital ward discharge diagnose as hospitalization causes. Clinical, analytical outcomes as well as causes of mortality were collected.
resultsAmong 162 hospitalized HIV infected, 128 met the inclusion criteria, 8 of those were diagnosed as naive HIV patients. 79.7% were male; Age 50.29 ± 9.81 years. The main reasons for hospital admissions (38.3%) were certain infectious and parasitic diseases (ICD-10 Classification) and more specifically human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease represented 24,1% of whole hospitalizations. Mortality rates of ≥18 years HIV patients that were admitted to hospital during 2016-2017 were the 13.52%. The main causes of death were certain infectious and parasitic diseases followed by malignancies.
conclusionsOur results emphasize the need of intensifying the HIV early diagnosis as well as Pneumocystis jirovecii primary prophylaxis. Insist on ART adherence from infectology follow-up appointment and pharmacy care consultations, educate clinics on ART treatment prescription during hospital admission as well as requesting viral and CD4 lymphocytes loads to every HIV admitted patients.
