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

Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infects approximately one third of the world's population. Globally there are an estimated 13.1 million cases of T. gondii co-infection in HIV-infected people with 87.1% of these individuals living in sub-Saharan Africa. The risk of T. gondii infection in HIV-infected women rises significantly with lower CD4+ T cell counts (particularly under 100 cells/μl). Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) occurs in approximately 30% of cases of maternal T. gondii infection during pregnancy. The global prevalence of latent toxoplasmosis in HIV-infected pregnant women is 47.5% but the overall risk in HIV-infected mothers of MTCT of T. gondii is however, estimated to be low at < 5%. MTCT in HIV-infected mothers not only occurs due to T. gondii primary infection in pregnancy but also due to reactivation. Infants with congenital toxoplasmosis born to HIV-infected mother may have a more rapid onset and greater dissemination of disease thus having potentially devastating effects. This article discusses the key risks for MTCT of T. gondii infection in HIV-infected mothers as well highlighting the many knowledge gaps for which further study is required.
