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
backgroundAntiretroviral therapy (ART) has been proven effective in reducing the mortality rates among people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH). However, poor adherence to ART may result in treatment failure. Few studies examine the relationship between spousal intimacy, type of ART and ART adherence. This study aimed to investigate the association between spousal intimacy, type of antiretroviral therapy (ART) and antiretroviral therapy adherence among PLWH in Bandung, Indonesia. DESIGN AND
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted involving 115 adult PLWH who were receiving ART at least for 6 months in RSUD Kota Bandung, they were selected with consecutive sampling. The data were analyzed using chi-square test.
resultsThe majority of PLWH (61.74%) reported had high level of spousal intimacy, about 93.91% PLWH used first line of ART, and 88.69% had high adherence in consuming ART. Spousal intimacy had a significant relationship to antiretroviral adherence (p<0.001) and type of ART (p=0.031, OR: 7.35) significantly associated with antiretroviral adherence.
conclusionsPLWH who have high levels of spousal intimacy also have high levels of antiretroviral adherence. PLWH on first-line ART were 7.3 times more adherent on ART.
