Changes in the HIV continuum of care following expanded access to HIV testing and treatment in Indonesia: A retrospective population-based cohort study.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundIn 2013, the Indonesian government launched the strategic use of antiretroviral therapy (SUFA) initiative with an aim to move closer to achieving the UNAIDS 90-90-90 target. This study assessed the impact of SUFA on the cascade of HIV care.
methodsWe performed a two-year retrospective population-based cohort study of all HIV positive individuals aged ≥ 18 years residing in two cities where SUFA was operational using data from HIV clinics. We analysed data for one-year pre- and one-year post-SUFA implementation. We assessed the rates of enrolment in care, assessment for eligibility for antiretroviral therapy (ART), treatment initiation, loss to follow-up (LTFU) and mortality. Multivariate Cox regression was used to determine the pre-to-post-SUFA hazard ratio.
resultsA total of 2,292 HIV positive individuals (1,085 and 1,207 pre and post-SUFA respectively) were followed through their cascade of care. In the pre-SUFA period, 811 (74.6%) were enrolled in care, 702 (86.6%) were found eligible for ART, 485 (69.1%) initiated treatment, 102 (21%) were LTFU and 117 (10.8%) died. In the post-SUFA period, 930 (77%) were enrolled in care, 896 (96.3%) were found eligible for ART, 627 (70%) initiated treatment, 100 (16%) were LTFU and 148 (12.3%) dead. There was an 11% increase in the rate of HIV linkage to care (HR = 1.11; 95% CI 1.001, 1.22 p<0.05), a 13% increase in the rate of eligibility for ART (HR = 1.13, 95% CI 1.02,1.25, p<0.01) and a 27% reduction in LTFU (HR = 0.73, 95%CI 0.55, 0.97, p<0.05). Rates of ART initiation and mortality did not change.
conclusionSUFA was effective in improving HIV care in relation to linkage to care, eligibility and ART retention. Therefore, the scale up across the whole of Indonesia of the SUFA currently in the form of a test and treat policy, with improvement in testing and treatment strategies is justified.
