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.
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
Introduction: An increasing incidence in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and syphilis coinfection has been observed in recent years. Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of HIV diagnosis among patients with syphilis hospitalized from 2015 to 2022 at the Department of Dermatology. Material and methods: This is a single-centre retrospective cohort study regarding adult patients diagnosed with syphilis and HIV. Data were collected from patient medical records and subsequently analysed to identify patterns and associations among patients with coinfection. Results: Among 511 patients hospitalized because of syphilis, 98 had concomitant HIV infection (96 males and 2 females). An increase in the number of HIV infections was observed in the group of syphilis-positive patients at a rate of 3.89% per year (Pearson Conclusions: In our study we observed a considerable increase in the number of patients diagnosed with the coinfection of syphilis and HIV in the last few years. The above analysis underscores the ongoing public health challenges associated with these diseases.
