Missed Opportunities for HIV Diagnosis and Their Clinical Repercussions in the Portuguese Population-A 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
Late human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) diagnosis has been associated with missed opportunities for earlier diagnosis. We conducted a retrospective, longitudinal, single-centre cohort study evaluating these missed opportunities and their clinical repercussions in adults with a new HIV diagnosis or who were drug-naïve, who attended our Infectious Diseases Department between 2018 and 2023. We assessed missed opportunities in the two years prior to diagnosis or after the last negative HIV test. We compared clinical and laboratorial data from individuals with and without missed opportunities. The primary outcome considered was AIDS-defining conditions at diagnosis. Among the 436 included individuals, 27.1% experienced at least one missed opportunity. Those with missed opportunities were more likely to be female (
