Clinical care & blood pressure control among hypertensive people living with human immune deficiency virus: Prospective cohort study.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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.

Abstract
backgroundHypertension has emerged as a new threat to the health and well-being of people living with human immune deficiency virus (PLHIV). However, no data exist on care delivery and blood pressure control over time in Ethiopia. We assessed clinical care & level of blood pressure control among hypertensive people living with Human Immune Deficiency Virus (HIV).
methodsWe conducted a prospective cohort study among adult hypertensive PLHIV and HIV-negative patientsat chronic care clinics of Jimma University Medical Center in Ethiopia. We explored self-management practices and blood pressure control of study participants. Multivariable Cox-regression was used to identify the predictors of the outcome.
resultsA total of 303 eligible participants with mean age of 43.30 ± 12.55years were followed and males comprised of 52.1%. After 12 months of follow-up, 60.2% of HIV-positive and 53% of HIV-negative patients showed uncontrolled blood pressure. The overall perception of self-management behaviors was 2.10 ± 0.77 (p = 0.122), which was at moderate level. An increased waist circumference [AHR: 2.16; 95% CI: (1.58-5.18);p = 0.021],chronic disease co-morbidity[AHR:3.94;95%CI:(2.24-8.74);p = 0.046],alcohol use history[AHR:1.26; 95%CI:(1.08-2.23);p = 0.031], HIV infection[AHR:3.06;95%CI:(1.93-11.34);p=0.042], infrequent use of fruits & vegetables [AHR:3.77;95%CI: (1.34-10.57);p=0.012], infrequent engagement on physical exercise[AHR:3.48;95%CI:(1.48-8.17);p = 0.004],frequent use of high fats food [AHR:2.56;95%CI: (1.25-5.25);p = 0.011] were an independent predictors of uncontrolled blood pressure.
conclusionThe rate of uncontrolled blood pressure is significantly higher in the HIV- infected population. There was a gap in the clinical care of hypertension in terms of hypertension self-management among hypertensive HIV-positive patients. Our study highlights the need for better integration of hypertension care to HIV clinical setting.
