Data on the relationship of signal-to-cutoff ratio of two HIV antigen/antibody combination assays to subsequent confirmation of HIV-1 infection in a low-prevalence population.
Article in Data in brief, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
HIV-1/2 antigen/antibody (Ag/Ab) immunoassays that detect HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies and HIV-1 p24 antigen are commonly used in the diagnosis of HIV-1/HIV-2 infections in human plasma/serum. Samples from patients with positive screening results require confirmation by antibody differentiation and/or HIV PCR assays. HIV screening assays are commonly reported as positive or negative based on a signal-to-cutoff (S/CO) threshold. For some HIV screening assays, the strength of the S/CO value correlates with likelihood that confirmatory testing will be positive. The data in this article provide results from two HIV Ag/Ab combination assays (Abbott Architect HIV Ag/Ab Combo Assay, a 4
