1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Despite effective antiretroviral therapy, HIV persists in diverse tissue reservoirs that pose major barriers to a cure. This review examines the heterogeneous maintenance mechanisms of HIV reservoirs in lymph nodes, intestinal mucosa, and the central nervous system (CNS). It analyzes how distinct tissue microenvironments-including immune-privileged niches, specialized cellular subsets, and local signaling networks-govern viral persistence and latency. Lymph nodes function as a dynamic hub interconnected with systemic reservoirs; the intestinal mucosa represents a site shaped by barrier integrity, microbial translocation, and mucosal immunity; the CNS constitutes a compartmentalized sanctuary protected by the blood-brain barrier. The review further discusses tissue-specific antiretroviral drug penetration and targeted clearance strategies, providing a foundation for developing multi-site intervention approaches toward HIV cure.
