A genome-wide association study of methamphetamine use among people with HIV.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2025. 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
backgroundAmphetamine-like stimulants are the most used psychostimulants in the world; methamphetamine use is the most prevalent in people with HIV. Prolonged methamphetamine use can cause lasting damage to the heart, gut, and brain, as well as auditory hallucinations and paranoid thinking. However, relatively little is known about methamphetamine use and its genetic contributors.
methodsUsing genetic information from the Centers for AIDS Research Network of Integrated Clinical Systems (CNICS) cohort, we conducted a multi-ancestry genome-wide association study (GWAS) of methamphetamine use among people with HIV (n = 1,196 reported ever use, n = 4,750 reported never use).
resultsNo single nucleotide polymorphism was statistically associated with methamphetamine use at the genome-wide level (p < 5 * 10 DISCUSSION: Our study suggests that there is no single strong genetic contributor to lifetime use of methamphetamine in people with HIV enrolled in CNICS. Larger studies with more refined outcome assessment are warranted to further understand the contribution of genetics to methamphetamine use and use disorder. Investigation into social and environmental contributors to methamphetamine use are similarly necessary.
