Immune Markers and Their Association with Bone Density in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults with Perinatally Acquired HIV.

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
To describe distributions of immune markers in children and young adults by sex and HIV status, and within groups, investigate associations of immune markers with bone density across Tanner stage. Using data and samples from 353 participants in a cross-sectional study in youth with perinatally acquired HIV (PHIV) and matched HIV-negative controls, distributions of inflammation and activation immune markers were described by sex and HIV status. Correlations and structural equation models (SEM) were used to explore marginal and multivariable associations of the immune markers with bone density and to assess whether patterns of association varied by sex and HIV status. Immune marker distributions did not differ by sex, but there were some differences by HIV status. Correlation patterns among bone, body composition, and immune markers were similar across the sex and HIV status groups. Conclusions from SEMs were limited by small sample sizes, but there was some indication that patterns of association between bone density and certain immune markers differed in male PHIV with more advanced Tanner stage compared to the other three groups. In conclusion, distributions of bone density, body composition, and immune markers may vary by sex and HIV status, although associations among these outcomes within sex and HIV status groups appear similar. Bone density of male PHIV appears to be more negatively affected than females, regardless of female HIV status. Larger longitudinal studies across Tanner stages are needed to further explore potential biological relationships between immune markers and bone density in youth living with HIV.
