The effect of antiretroviral therapy with high central nervous system penetration on HIV-related cognitive impairment: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in AIDS care, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Chronic complications are a significant concern for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) infection. HIV-associated neurocognitive disorders (HAND) are prevalent in PLWHA. Yet, the efficacy of medications that penetrate the central nervous system (CNS) at preventing or slowing the progression of HAND remains largely unknown. The objective of this study was to determine whether high CNS penetration effectiveness (CPE) regimens improve neurocognitive test scores in PLWHA on combined antiretroviral therapy (cART). Primary literature evaluating cognitive outcomes based on CPE score of cART regimens in PLWHA was assembled from PubMed/Medline and EMBASE. Both randomized controlled trials and observational studies with at least 12 weeks of follow-up were included. A meta-analysis was conducted to calculate the standardized mean difference. Eight trials including a total of 3,303 patients with 13,103 person-years of follow-up were included in the systematic review. Four trials (
