Prevalence and longitudinal correlates of recent exposure to fentanyl among HIV-positive people who use unregulated drugs during a community-wide overdose crisis.

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
The United States and Canada are experiencing an opioid overdose crisis driven largely by exposure to fentanyl (a potent synthetic opioid), with little known about fentanyl exposure among HIV-positive people who use unregulated drugs (PWUD). We sought to estimate the prevalence and correlates of fentanyl exposure among a community-recruited sample derived from a prospective cohort study of HIV-positive PWUD in Vancouver, Canada. Generalized linear mixed-effects analyses were used to identify longitudinal factors associated with a fentanyl-positive urine drug screen test. Between June 2016-November 2017, 456 participants were recruited and contributed 1007 observations. At baseline, 96% of participants were ART-exposed, 72% had an HIV viral load (VL) <50 copies/mL and 21% had a fentanyl-positive test. Longitudinally, fentanyl-positive tests were characterized by: younger participant age (Adjusted Odds Ratio [AOR] = 0.45), recent non-fatal overdose (AOR = 2.30), engagement in opioid agonist therapy (AOR = 1.91), and at least daily heroin injection (AOR = 11.27). CD4+ cell count was negatively associated with fentanyl urine positivity (AOR = 0.92) (all
