Brain opportunistic infections and tumors in people living with HIV - still a challenge in efficient antiretroviral therapy era.
Observational study in Journal of neurovirology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The aim of the study was to evaluate the incidence of brain opportunistic pathologies and survival in patients living with HIV from a Romanian tertiary center. A 15-year prospective observational study of brain opportunistic infections diagnosed in HIV-infected patients was performed at Victor Babes Hospital, Bucharest, between January 2006 and December 2021. Characteristics and survival were compared related to modes of HIV acquisition and type of opportunistic infection. A total of 320 patients were diagnosed with 342 brain opportunistic infections (incidence 9.79 per 1000 person-years), 60.2% males with median age at diagnosis of 31 years (IQR 25, 40). Median CD4 cell count and VL were 36/μL (IQR 14, 96) and 5.1 log
