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

Transplantation of kidneys from donors with HIV to recipients with HIV (HIV D+/R+) has been shown to be safe and effective, but there is a unique risk of donor-derived HIV superinfection (HIV-SI) in these recipients. Recipients from a multicenter observational HIV D+/R+ study were examined for HIV-SI by site-directed next-generation sequencing (Illumina). Eighteen recipients of HIV D+/R+ kidney transplants had baseline and follow-up samples that successfully amplified. One recipient was confirmed to have experienced donor-derived HIV-SI at week 26 but did not experience any clinically significant changes. HIV-SI in recipients of HIV D+/R+ transplants is rare, and the clinical ramifications appear negligible.
