Sleep quality and disturbance during the COVID-19 pandemic among people with HIV globally: associations with social determinants of health.
Observational study in AIDS (London, England), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo examine the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on sleep quality and sleep disturbance and explore the relationship between social determinants of health, clinical factors, and sleep quality and sleep disturbance in a global sample of people with HIV (PWH).
designCross-sectional prospective international observational study to examine the social, mental, and physical health impacts of COVID-19 on sleep health of PWH.
methodsA modified version of the Adolescent Trials Network (ATN) COVID Questionnaire was utilized to collect sleep quality and social determinant of health data in adult PWH. Sleep disturbance was determined from a single item from the Fear of COVID-19 Scale. A series of logistic regressions were conducted to explore the relationship of social determinants of health with decreased sleep quality and disturbance.
resultsA sample of 1601 PWH from four continents (Africa, Asia, North America, and South America) were included with 61% male, a mean age of 44.18 (±13.67) and living with HIV for an average of 12.8 years (±9.6). During the COVID-19 pandemic, 26.8% of participants experienced decreased sleep quality and 27.1% experienced sleep disturbance with the highest prevalence among participants residing in Africa. Individuals with decreased access to resources (food and money) were 0.23 times more likely to have decreased sleep quality compared to individuals with increased access to resources ( P < 0.001). PWH with no education were 2.83 times more likely to experience sleep disturbance than those with at least some postsecondary education ( P < 0.001).
conclusionsOur findings demonstrate the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted sleep quality and disturbance in PWH.
