Incidence of HIV Infection among HIV-Exposed Iinfants at Gondar University Hospital from 2019-2021: A Prospective Cohort Study.

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: Mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is decreasing worldwide; however, achieving the MTCT elimination target of 2% by 2020 and 0% by 2030 is challenging in resource-limited countries. Preventing mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) is a key strategy in eliminating new pediatric human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection Strengthening PMTCT program is one of the key mechanisms for the elimination of Pediatric HIV infection and improving maternal and newborn survival. Assessing the incidence of HIV infection among HIV exposed infants is critical to devise an important preventive strategy which was the main objective of this study. Methods: A prospective Cohort study was conducted at Gondar University Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, PMTCT clinic to assess the incidence of HIV infection among HIV exposed infants from 2019-2021. Results: The overall incidence of HIV infection among HIV exposed infants was 3.6%. HIV infection rate was significantly increased among HIV exposed infants coming out of Gondar, Infants with developmental failure and Infants with Unknown fathers' HIV status compared to their counterpart. Conclusions: The incidence of HIV infection among 307 HIV-exposed infants was 3.6% which is higher than the expected standard. The lost to follow up rate was also significant (9.4%). These finding showed that strengthening the PMCT service is mandatory.
