Strategies to integrate non-communicable disease interventions in HIV and tuberculosis care contexts in low- and middle-income countries: a scoping review.

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
introductionIntegration of management of tuberculosis (TB) and HIV with prevention and treatment of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is a global priority. However, delivering the full spectrum of HIV/TB and NCD services is hindered by a lack of evidence regarding effective models and strategies for integrating NCDs and HIV/TB care services in varying contexts and across interventions. We conducted a scoping review to describe service delivery models and strategies used to facilitate integration of NCD care in HIV and/or TB care settings in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
methodsWe searched eight electronic databases for studies published from 2010 to 2025 that evaluated methods to integrate evidence-based screening and/or treatment of NCDs (diabetes, cervical cancer, hypertension and depression) and NCD risk factors (alcohol and tobacco use) in the context of HIV and/or TB care in LMICs. We applied a framework for categorising integration models ranging from coordination to full integration and used implementation science taxonomies to define implementation strategies and outcomes.
results72 articles were included; 62.5% evaluated implementation of NCD interventions in HIV care settings, 31.9% in TB care and 5.6% in both. Less than a third (27.8%) reported a fully integrated service delivery model (shared systems and services). Commonly described implementation strategies included training (81.9%), evaluation strategies (43.1%), interactive assistance for providers (40.3%) and infrastructure change (eg, changing record systems) (37.5%).
conclusionStudies in LMICs are evaluating a range of strategies and service models for integrating NCD interventions into HIV and TB care in LMICs. This reflects differences in health system capacity and priorities. Greater alignment with WHO systems-integration models and implementation science frameworks could strengthen the evidence base and support progress towards global NCD goals through more consistent reporting of frameworks, integration strategies and implementation outcomes.
