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

With the advancement of effective antiretroviral therapy, people with HIV live longer, and many are developing non-AIDS comorbidities. It is important to assess how comorbidities are associated with HIV-related health outcomes, such as viral suppression (VS). The aim of this study was to analyze the association between comorbidity burden, measured using a modified Quan-Charlson Comorbidity Index (QCCI), and VS (viral load result of <200 copies/mL). We hypothesized that an increase in QCCI score, indicating a higher risk for mortality, would correlate with lower likelihood of VS because of the burden of comorbidity treatment, possibly leading to worse antiretroviral adherence. Our analysis included participants from the DC Cohort Longitudinal HIV Study in Washington, DC. Eligible participants were aged ≥18 years and enrolled in the cohort as of January 1, 2018 (
