Bone methabolic disorders in HIV positive patients: a case report.
Article in Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Fractures in patients affected by HIV are more frequent than what is reported in patients with no retroviral diseases. Chronic infection with HIV likely contributes to increased systemic inflammation, which has been associated with increased rates of fracture. We report a case of a 56-year-old male (HIV + in treatment with Atripla) heavy worker, at the beginning affected by intra-articular proximal humerus fracture treated with endoprosthesis replacement and later by periprosthetic fracture treated with plate, screws and cerclages. Follow up was performed with clinical evaluation (ROM, VAS, Quick Dash, ASES, Simple shoulder test, UCLA Score, Constant score) and shoulder radiographs. Bone metabolism disorders in HIV patients lead to low BMD values, changes in bone turnover markers, and histomorphometric abnormalities, especially when HIV is present along with HCV or other hepatopathies. Additional therapy with bisphosphonate and Vitamin D should always be carried out when possible to prevent such types of orthopaedic complications.
