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

Objectives: For people living with HIV (PLWH) and tuberculous meningitis (TBM), current studies on risk stratification and poor prognosis lack a clear optimal threshold. To address this gap, this study aims to identify an optimal immunological threshold for risk stratification and explore predictors of poor prognosis in this population. Methods: We conducted a multicentre cross-sectional study enrolling PLWH with TBM from hospitals across eight provinces of China between January 2018 and December 2020. We extracted the demographic and clinical data, discharge outcomes, Medical Research Council staging and CD4 Results: A total of 201 participants were included in the study. Of these, 173 (86.1%) improved with treatment. Restricted cubic spline analysis identified CD4 Conclusions: In PLWH with TBM, a CD4
