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

objectiveIn this study, we explore changes in the demographic and clinical characteristics of pregnant people living with HIV, and their post-partum HIV outcomes between 2000 and 2018.

methodsWe described pregnancies resulting in a live birth from the linked UK CHIC/ISOSS dataset in three calendar periods (2000-2006; 2007-2012; 2013-2018). Thereafter, we explored median CD4 count change and viral rebound from delivery to 12 months post-partum.

resultsIn total, 4341 pregnancies were included. Maternal age increased from 31 (IQR: 28-35) years in 2000-2006 to 34 (IQR: 30-37) years in 2013-2018. Those conceiving in the most recent period had been diagnosed with HIV for longer (2000-2006: 3.0 years to 2013-2018: 7.5 years), had a higher median CD4 count (431-583 cells/mm

conclusionClinical management of pregnant people has changed over time, resulting in positive trends in this study both within pregnancy and post-partum. Further work needs to understand what barriers remain for those who do not achieve optimal management of HIV in the post-partum period.
