Re-Engagement into HIV Care: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in AIDS and behavior, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Identifying evidence-based interventions that can optimize the re-engagement into care of people living with HIV is necessary to achieve and sustain HIV epidemic control. We conducted a systematic review of interventions for re-engagement into HIV care to examine the accumulated evidence and to identify similarities and differences across studies. Between January and March 2020, we searched MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, and PsycINFO databases for publications from 1996 to 2020. We screened 765 references and selected 125 publications for full-text review. For the nine included studies, the intervention centered on (1) integration of clinic and HIV surveillance data; (2) additional or different levels of support provided by healthcare workers; or (3) multi-component intervention. Irrespective of the interventions, mixed results were found for re-engagement into care or ART re-initiation. None of the studies led to an improvement in viral suppression. Re-engagement in HIV care is critical for longitudinal HIV and national program success. Standardizing definitions for out-of-care and re-engagement would facilitate the comparison of interventions. Rigorous study designs to assess strategies to enhance HIV re-engagement are warranted.
