Newly diagnosed HIV positive children: a unique index case to improve HIV diagnosis and linkage to care of parents.
Article in AIDS care, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02063880 (Urgent Versus Post-Stabilization ART in HIV-1 Infected Children With Severe Co-Infections), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.

Abstract
Newly diagnosed HIV positive children may be unique index cases to identify undiagnosed parents. Data was used from the Pediatric Urgent Start of HAART (NCT02063880) trial, which enrolled hospitalized, ART-naïve, HIV positive children ages 0-12 years in Kenya. Exact McNemar's tests were used to compare proportions of mothers and fathers tested for HIV, linked to care, and on ART at baseline and 6 months. This analysis included 87 newly diagnosed children with HIV who completed 6 months of follow-up. Among 83 children with living mothers, there were improvements in maternal linkage to care and treatment comparing baseline to 6 months (36% vs. 78%;
