The Role of Comorbidity on Retention in HIV Care.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Retention is a central component of the Cascade, facilitating monitoring of comorbidity. Country-specific definitions differ and may suit stable and functioning clients, while not appropriately classifying complex clinical presentations characterized by comorbidity. A retrospective file review of 363 people living with HIV attending a Sydney HIV clinic was conducted. Retention was compared with Australian (attendance once/12-months) and World Health Organization (attendance 'appropriate to need') recommendations to identify those attending according to the Australian definition, but not clinician recommendations (AUnotWHO). Multivariable logistic regression analyses determined the impact of age/sex and clinician-assessed comorbidity on retention. Most (97%) participants were considered retained according to the Australian definition, but only 56.7% according to clinician recommendations. Those with psychosocial comorbidity alone were less likely to be in the AUnotWHO group (OR 0.51, 95%CI 0.27-0.96, p = 0.04). The interaction of physical and psychosocial comorbidity was predictive of poor retention (Wald test: χ
