Sex and HIV Differences in Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm) Among Ugandans Postpneumonia.
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Background: Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm), defined as a normal ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV Methods: Adults with and without HIV underwent baseline followed by serial spirometry after completing therapy for pneumonia, predominantly tuberculosis (TB), in Kampala, Uganda. Using generalized estimating equations adjusted for age, body mass index, smoking, biomass fuel exposure, HIV, and TB status, we compared individuals with PRISm with those with normal spirometry. These models were stratified by HIV status. Results: Of 339 baseline participants, 153 (45%) were women; 129 (38%) had HIV, of whom 53% were women. Overall, 105/339 participants (31%) had PRISm at baseline. HIV was associated with lower odds of PRISm (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.38; 95% CI, 0.21-0.68; Conclusions: Among Ugandan adults who recovered from pneumonia, female sex was associated with increased odds and HIV with decreased odds of PRISm, suggesting independent sex and HIV effects on PRISm pathogenesis.
