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
backgroundTo determine the prevalence of undiagnosed HIV infection among individuals presenting to a hospital emergency department with specific clinical conditions, and to describe the characteristics of those diagnosed with HIV. MATERIAL AND
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted in the emergency department of the University Hospital of Navarra (Pamplona, Spain) over the first 18 months following the implementation of an early HIV diagnosis program. Adults presenting with herpes zoster, sexually transmitted infections, mononucleosis-like syndrome, community-acquired pneumonia, post-exposure prophylaxis, or chemsex were included. Non-urgent HIV serology tests were requested. In the event of a positive result, patients were informed and referred for consultation to initiate treatment.
resultsTwo hundred and fifty-two patients were included (mean age: 37.15 years; 63% male); of these, 37% presented with community-acquired pneumonia, 25% with sexually transmitted infections, and 27% had previous HIV serology. Nine individuals (3.6%) tested positive: six were aged 35 to 55, seven were male, with CD4 counts <500 cells/µL and viral loads <3,400 copies/mL. All accepted antiretroviral treatment and were seen in consultation within =6 days.
conclusionsThe early HIV diagnosis program in our emergency department proved effective in identifying HIV infection, particularly among individuals with limited interaction with the healthcare system. These findings support the protocol's utility, its performance, and potential for further optimization.
