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

The prevalence of behavioral problems in children and adolescents living with HIV is high. We investigate associations between oral microbiota and behavioral problems in children living with HIV (CLWH) and children who are HIV-uninfected (CHU). Oral swab samples, assessment of behavioral functioning using the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), and clinical and social data were collected from 477 CLWH and 123 CHU at two sites in Johannesburg, South Africa. DNA was extracted from oral swab samples and the V4 amplicon of the 16S rRNA gene sequenced. Behavioral problems were more prevalent in CLWH than in CHU, and in boys than in girls. Oral microbiota diversity and taxa abundances in CLWH did not differ between those with and without behavioral problems. In contrast, in CHU, those with behavioral problems had higher alpha diversity indices and lower abundances of
