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

A complex bidirectional relationship exists between human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and psychotic disorders. The co-occurrence of both conditions is associated with higher morbidity and mortality than their individual occurrence. In this case report, we discuss a 36-year-old people with HIV and first-episode psychotic disorder who benefited from the two-injection start regimen of long-acting aripiprazole without side effects in the context with relevant literature. In people with HIV and psychotic symptoms, a thorough evaluation is required to exclude other known causes of psychosis. With a multidisciplinary approach, proper diagnosis and appropriate treatment can reduce morbidity and mortality as well as improve functionality and quality of life. Especially in patients with poor oral medication adherence, the use of the two-injection start regimen of long-acting aripiprazole while considering potential drug-drug interactions and extrapyramidal symptoms may improve treatment compliance and reduce the exacerbation risk of psychotic symptoms caused by medication discontinuation.
