Kaposi sarcoma (KS) with primary effusion lymphoma in HIV infected MSM (men having sex with men) co-infected with pulmonary tuberculosis and syphilis: a case report from India.
Article in AIDS research and therapy, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
We describe a case of a 30-year-old MSM recently diagnosed with HIV, immunocompromised with a purplish or brown rash all over the body for 3 to 4 months. The histopathology of the cutaneous lesions and pleural effusion aspirate confirmed the diagnosis of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) and primary effusion lymphoma (PEL). While KS is one of the AIDS-defining illnesses seen in immunocompromised patients having low CD4 count, PEL is a rare and distinct subset of AIDS-related lymphoma. Despite the widespread availability of HIV testing, HIV diagnosis gets delayed due to stigma among MSM. This case report emphasizes the importance of early suspicion for symptoms of HIV-associated opportunistic infections in high-risk populations like MSM. The report reiterates the need for an ambient stigma-free environment for improving HIV screening in this high-risk population.
