Brief Report: Trends in Hospital Readmissions Among Adults With and Without HIV in the United States, 2010-2020.
Article in Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundAlthough 30-day hospital readmission is a widely followed quality measure, there are limited US nationwide data to evaluate its trends among people with HIV (PWH) and the sex disparity over time. We describe the 30-day all-cause unplanned readmission trends among PWH and people without HIV (PWoH) in the United States.
settingAdult participants in the 2010-2020 Nationwide Readmissions Database, which weighted represents all US hospitalizations each year.
methodsWe defined index admission and unplanned readmission using the US Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services criteria. Overall and sex-specific readmission risks were tabulated among the index admissions from adult PWH and PWoH each year in the 2010-2020 Nationwide Readmissions Database. Random effect linear and Poisson regressions were used to estimate risk difference and annual percentage change of the trend. We added a spline in 2015 and additionally stratified the analysis by age and patient's zip code median household income. All analyses were weighted to generate national estimates.
resultsApproximately 140,000 index admissions from PWH and 25 million from PWoH were included each year. For PWoH between 2010 and 2020, annual readmission risk was stable at ∼12%. For PWH, readmission risk was stable at ∼22% during 2010-2015 and decreased from 22.0% in 2016 to 20.1% in 2020 (RD= -1.60 [95% CI: -2.24,-0.95]). Nonpregnant female PWH continued to have higher readmission risk than male PWH for all subgroups and all years. Nonpregnant female PWH <40 years had no reduction in readmission risk between 2016 and 2020 (RD= -0.45 [95% CI: -2.43, 1.53]).
conclusionsThere remains strong need for readmission reduction interventions focusing on PWH, especially for young female PWH.
