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

Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients show an increased propensity for certain cancers, grouped asAIDS-defining cancers (ADCs) and non-AIDS-defining cancers (NADCs). The recent finding indicates a shift from ADC to NADC, with a stable incidence of ADCs. There is minimal data about the distribution of malignancies among people living with HIV/AIDS in India. The study aims to evaluate the distribution of malignancies among people living with HIV infection. Methods: A retrospective, single-center hospital record-based study was conducted in southwest India at a tertiary care hospital from 2016 to 2019. Out of the 1385 HIV-positive patients who sought treatment during the study period, data from 57 HIV-positive patients with cancer were retrospectively assessed from the Medical Records Division. Results: In Conclusion: The study concluded that HIV-infected patients are most likely to develop ADCs.
