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
Background and Aims: The COVID-19 pandemic impacted daily life and healthcare. This study investigated how this affected the outcome in children and adolescents living with HIV/AIDS. Methods: This study investigated medical visits and outcomes (viral load, immunological parameters) in participants in the German Pediatric and Adolescent HIV cohort for 30 months, covering a period before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Results: Fifty-two participants receiving antiretroviral therapy (27 females, 25 males; median age: 18 years, IQR: 15.0, 22.0) were analysed. Fifty percent of patients had fewer medical visits, 21% had an unchanged number of visits, and 29% had more medical visits when comparing the pandemic period with the prior period. ( Conclusion: Overall, the study shows a negative impact during the COVID-19 pandemic on the outcome in children and adolescents living with HIV in Germany and indicates the fragile nature of virological control in this population. Appropriate measures including virtual consultations should be implemented to improve outcome in future pandemic situations.
