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

In this viewpoint, we discuss retention in care for people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and call into question the methodology used to characterize retention, as well as the definitions themselves. Optimal retention for people with HIV (PWH) is defined in multiple ways by major healthcare leaders in the United States, typically focusing on appointment attendance or laboratory work. Yet, these definitions rely on in-person encounters, an approach to care that is becoming less common due to the rise of telehealth visits, particularly in light of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Our recent work showed that relying on electronic health records to identify PWH who were not retained in care not only failed to capture the nuances of modern HIV medical treatment engagement, but also led to misidentification of patients' retention status due to limitations in the record system. As such, we recommend a reevaluation of how HIV medical care retention is defined and reported.
