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

objectiveTo analyze the epidemiological characteristics of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection among voluntary blood donors and provide a foundation for improving the donor recruitment strategies and developing a more scientific and effective HIV screening strategy.

methodsHIV testing data from voluntary blood donors in Nanchang, collected from January 2021 to February 2024, were analyzed. According to the serologic and nucleic acid sequence detection mode, two different reagents were used for ELISA detection and NAT detection. The reactive samples were subjected to western blot confirmatory test, and the confirmed positive samples were sent to the provincial CDC for viral load detection.

resultsAmong 264,615 voluntary blood donors, 166 cases (0.627‰) were initially reactive: 165 cases detected by ELISA and 1 by NAT. Confirmed positive samples showed 100% positivity for gp160, gp120, and p24, while the p24 detection rate in the HIV indeterminate group was highest at 78.13%. Among the 24 confirmed positive specimens, 21 (87.5%) had a viral load (VL) > 5,000 copies/mL, and 3 (12.5%) had a viral load (VL) < 5,000 copies/mL.

conclusionsConfirmed HIV-positive donors exhibited varying levels of viral replication. It is necessary to develop more scientific and effective HIV screening strategies and conduct viral load testing for indeterminate cases to retain qualified blood donors while ensuring blood safety.
