Coinfection of HIV-1 with
Article in EC microbiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: It is hypothesized that schistosomiasis and intestinal parasites increase susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and enhance AIDS progression by immunomodulation. This study aims to compare the prevalence and risk factors for schistosomiasis and intestinal parasites in HIV-1 infected and uninfected persons and to evaluate the association between HIV-1 induced immunosuppression and risk factors for parasite infection. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at Boane Health Center in Boane village, Maputo Province from April to June 2017 in 280 patients aged over 5 years. From each of 140 HIV-1 infected or 140 HIV-1 uninfected persons, demographic and clinical data were collected as well as one stool and urine sample for parasitological analysis. All stool samples were processed using direct wet mount and Ritchie method for detection of common parasites, and modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining techniques to identify Results: The overall prevalence of parasitism in the study population was 46.8% (131/280). Fifty six percent of the HIV-1 infected persons (78/140) were infected by at least one parasite compared to 38% (53/140 of the HIV-1 uninfected persons (odds ratio [OR] 2.0, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.2-3.3).Further, HIV-1 infected persons were more likely to be infected by Conclusions: It is possible that the a high prevalence of schistosomiais and intestinal parasites in this region plays an important role on the transmission and pathogenesis of HIV.
