Pharmacy Data as an Alternative Data Source for Implementation of a Data to Care Strategy.
Article in Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.
Who cites it
9 citing papers in PubMed, 1 synthesis or guideline pooled it, 10 citations in OpenAlex.

Abstract
backgroundData to Care (D2C) is a strategy for using health departments' HIV surveillance data (HIV viral load and CD4 laboratory reports) to identify and re-engage not-in-care persons with HIV. In the current D2C model, there is a delay in the identification of persons not in care due to the time interval between recommended monitoring tests (ie, every 3-6 months) and the subsequent reporting of these tests to the health department.
methodsPharmacy claims and fulfillment data can be used to identify persons with HIV who have stopped filling antiretroviral therapy and are at risk of falling out of care. Because most antiretrovirals (ARVs) are prescribed as a 30-day supply of medication, these data can be used to identify persons who are not filling their medications on a monthly basis. The use of pharmacy claims data to identify persons not filling ARV prescriptions is an example of how "big data" can be used to conduct a modified D2C model.
resultsAlthough a D2C strategy using pharmacy data has not been broadly implemented, a few health departments are implementing demonstration projects using this strategy. As the projects progress, processes and outcomes can be evaluated.
conclusionsTracking ARV refill data can be a more real-time indicator of poor adherence and can help identify HIV-infected persons at risk of falling out of HIV medical care.
