All-cause and cause-specific mortality trends among people with and without HIV in the Siaya health and demographic surveillance system, Kenya, 2011-2018.
Article in Global health action, 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
backgroundAll-cause mortality among people with HIV (PWH) in sub-Saharan Africa declined after antiretroviral therapy's introduction, but data in rural settings on evolving causes of death as this population age remain limited.
objectivesTo compare all-cause and cause-specific mortality trends among PWH and people without HIV (PWOH) in western Kenya using a prospective cohort study.
methodsData from the Siaya Health and Demographic Surveillance System were used to estimate mortality rates from 2011 to 2018 among persons aged 15-64 years, with the study population (PWH/PWOH) determined through HIV testing. InterVA-4 was used to ascertain the cause of death.
results45,581 individuals with an HIV test result contributed 209,078 person-years (py) of follow-up. The HIV prevalence was 14.5%. Median age among PWH increased from 37 to 42 years from 2011 to 2018. For PWOH, this was between 29 and 31 years. 1386 individuals died, 48.8% were PWH. HIV/AIDS/tuberculosis (319 deaths; 58.2%) was the leading mortality cause for PWH and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) (235; 40.9%) for PWOH. From 2011 to 2017, HIV/AIDS/tuberculosis mortality rates declined among PWH from 19.0 to 7.0 deaths/1,000py, and mortality due to NCDs increased from 3.7 in 2014 to 5.1/1,000py in 2017. For PWOH, cause-specific mortality trends were stable over time.
conclusionAmong PWH, HIV/AIDS/tuberculosis mortality decreased from 2011 to 2017, while mortality rates due to NCDs rose over time as the population aged. Among PWOH, NCDs were the leading cause of death. Managing HIV and the increasing burden of NCDs in this community requires education on prevention, active screening, and delivery of treatment and palliative care services.
