1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Plasma level of polysaccharide (1 → 3)-β-D-Glucan (βDG), as a diagnostic marker of invasive fungal infection has been reported to be elevated in people living with HIV (PLWH). We assessed the association of circulating βDG to inflammation and systemic immune activation and the effect of antiretroviral therapy (ART) on βDG in PLWH. Method: Plasma and peripheral blood monocular cell samples from 120 PLWH naive to ART and after 1 year's ART were collected. Plasma levels of βDG, markers of bacterial translocation, gut damage, and cellular immune activation were quantified. Result: The plasma βDG levels were negatively correlated with CD4+ T cells count ( Conclusion: The level of plasma βDG was associated with cellular immune activation and decreased after ART in PLWH, suggesting it could serve as a biomarker of immune activation and efficacy monitoring.
