Causes of death in people living with HIV: Lessons from five health facilities in Eswatini.
Article in Southern African journal of HIV medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Eswatini has a high HIV prevalence in adults and, despite being one of the first countries to achieve the UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets, AIDS-related deaths are still high. Objectives: This study describes the causes of death among people living with HIV (PLHIV) receiving care at five clinics in Eswatini. Method: A cross-sectional review of sociodemographic, clinical and mortality data of deceased clients who received care from 01 January 2021 to 30 June 2022, was conducted. Data were extracted from the deceased clients' clinical records, and descriptive and comparative analysis was performed. Results: Of 257 clients, 52.5% ( Conclusion: Most clients who died were aged 40 years and above and died from NCD-related causes, indicating a need to integrate prevention, screening, and treatment of NCDs into HIV services. Specific interventions targeting younger PLHIV will limit their risk for AHD.
