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

Our aim was to evaluate long-term health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in 253 people living with HIV (PLH) from the CoRIS cohort presenting to care with advanced HIV disease (AIDS or CD4 ≤ 100 cells/µL) and who had survived ≥ 5 years. Participants completed the WHOQOL-HIV-BREF and EQ-5D-5 L questionnaires. Clinical and immunological data were provided by the CoRIS at enrollment and on questionnaire completion. Linear repeated measures analyses assessed the evolution of immunological markers. Partial least squares structural equation modeling showed the longitudinal impact of baseline immunological markers on HRQoL. High baseline CD4 counts predicted higher WHOQOL-HIV-BREF independence scores (p = 0.021) and a marginally higher EQ-5D-5 L index value (p = 0.058), which was also associated with CD8 (p = 0.015). A higher CD4/CD8 ratio predicted lower scores on the WHOQOL-HIV-BREF 'spirituality, religion and personal belief' dimension (p = 0.006). Currently, PLH who present with advanced HIV disease achieve a moderate long-term HRQoL, with room for improvement.
