High Burden of Cardiac Abnormalities in Adults with HIV in Ethiopia: A Multicenter Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of the International Association of Providers of AIDS Care. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
ObjectivesTo estimate the prevalence and patterns of cardiac abnormalities among adults with HIV attending antiretroviral therapy clinics in Ethiopia and to identify clinical predictors of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).MethodsA multicenter cross-sectional study enrolled 312 adults with HIV from three tertiary hospitals in Addis Ababa. All participants underwent transthoracic echocardiography and standardized clinical assessment; multivariable logistic regression identified independent predictors of DCM.ResultsEchocardiographic abnormalities were detected in 42.1% of participants, including diastolic dysfunction (8.9%), left ventricular hypertrophy (8.9%), systolic dysfunction (6.1%), DCM (5.4%), coronary artery disease (3.9%), pericardial effusion (2.5%), and pulmonary hypertension (1.4%). DCM was independently associated with CD4 < 200 cells/mm
