Changing Prevalence of AIDS and Non-AIDS-Defining Cancers in an Incident Cohort of People Living with HIV over 28 Years.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundThe introduction and evolution of antiretrovirals has changed the panorama of comorbidities in people living with HIV (PLWH) by reducing the risk of AIDS-defining cancers (ADC). By contrast, due to ageing and persistent inflammation, the prevalence and incidence of non-AIDS-defining cancers have significantly increased. Therefore, we aimed at describing cancer epidemiology in our cohort over 28 years.
methodsWe retrospectively included all PLWH in our clinic who ever developed cancers, considering features of ADC and NADC, from January 1996 to March 2023. Demographic, clinical characteristics, and survival were analyzed, comparing three observation periods (1996-2003, 2004-2013, and 2014-2023).
resultsA total of 289 PLWH developed 308 cancers over the study period; 77.9% were male, the mean age was 49.6 years (SD 12.2), and 57.4% PLWH developed NADC and 41.5% ADC. Kaposi (21.8%) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (20.1%) were the most frequent cancers. Age at the time of cancer diagnosis significantly increased over time (41.6 years in the first period vs. 54.4 years in the third period,
conclusionsThe probability of survival for ADC did not decrease as significantly as the number of ADC diagnoses over time. By contrast, NADC dramatically increased, in line with epidemiological studies and other literature data. The changing patterns of malignancies from ADC to NADC underline the need for public health interventions and the fostering of screening programs aimed at the prevention and early detection of NADC in PLWH.
