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

Improving access to grant funding is a critical aspect of strengthening research capacity outside of higher income settings, particularly in HIV/AIDS where randomized control trials (RCTs) that require substantial resources are common. In this article, we assessed recent RCTs to examine variation in how studies were funded, depending on study location and the countries where publication authors were based. We conducted a PubMed literature review to identify RCTs with HIV status or viral load endpoints published in 2019 and 2020, then analyzed cross-tabulations of funding sources by study characteristics. One hundred sixteen publications met the inclusion criteria. Research in higher income countries was most likely to be funded by biotech/pharmaceutical companies, whereas research in lower- and middle-income countries was most likely to be funded by U.S. government sources. Overall, we found the distribution of funding sources differed significantly by study and author location (
