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

backgroundHIV-negative individuals with in utero HIV exposure represent an emerging population, exceeding 18 million people worldwide. Long-term clinical outcomes among HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) individuals into adolescence and young adulthood remain unknown.

settingUS academic health system.

methodsIn this observational cohort study, we leveraged a patient data registry to identify 50 HEU adolescents and young adults. We also identified 141 HIV-unexposed controls that were matched to HEU subjects up to 3:1 on age of last encounter (±2 years), birthdate (±5 years), sex, race/ethnicity, and zip code. All subjects were born since January 1, 1990, with medical records available into adolescence and young adulthood. Primary outcomes were most recent body mass index (BMI) z-score and presence of reactive airway disease (RAD). Records were manually reviewed to extract health information.

resultsFifty HEU adolescents and young adults (18 ± 3 years, 54% men) and 141 matched controls (19 ± 3 years, 54% men) were compared. HEU individuals had a higher BMI z-score (1.12 ± 1.08 vs. 0.73 ± 1.09, P = 0.03) and an increased prevalence of obesity (42% vs. 22%, P = 0.009) compared with controls. HEU subjects also had a higher prevalence of RAD vs. controls (40% vs. 23%, P = 0.03). These differences persisted on adjusting for demographic, socioeconomic, maternal, and birth-related factors. Maternal prenatal CD4 T-cell count was inversely associated with BMI z-score among HEU adolescents (r = -0.47, P = 0.01).

conclusionsHEU adolescents and young adults exhibited a heightened prevalence of obesity and RAD compared with HIV-unexposed controls. Additional studies are needed to optimize care for the expanding population of HEU individuals transitioning to adulthood.
