Hepatitis B and C Prevention, Screening, and Diagnostic Services at HIV Treatment Sites: International Epidemiology Databases to Evaluate AIDS.
Article in Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999), 2026. 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
backgroundPrevention, screening, and diagnostic services for hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) can prevent morbidity and mortality in people receiving HIV care. However, there is limited information about the availability of HBV and HCV services at HIV clinics globally.
methodsThe International epidemiology Databases to Evaluate AIDS (IeDEA) conducted surveys of service delivery and practices at participating HIV treatment centers from 7 regions. We used 2023 survey data to measure availability of HBV vaccination, HBV and HCV screening, HBV surface antigen (HBsAg), HBV DNA, HCV antibody, and HCV RNA testing. Multivariable logistic regression models were used to test associations of site characteristics with HBV and HCV services.
resultsHBV vaccination was available on-site at 67.7% of 204 HIV treatment sites. Screening for HBV and HCV at HIV care enrollment was reported by 72.1% and 50% of sites, respectively. HBsAg, HBV DNA, HCV antibody, and HCV RNA testing were available on-site at 77%, 47.6%, 61.8%, and 44.6% of sites, respectively. Sites serving predominately rural (vs. urban) populations were less likely to report on-site availability of HBV DNA [odds ratio (OR):0.07; 95% confidence interval: 0.01 to 0.68; P = 0.02], HCV antibody (OR = 0.18; 95% CI: 0.04 to 0.92; P = 0.04), and HCV RNA (OR = 0.10; 95% CI: 0.01 to 0.90; P = 0.04) testing.
conclusionLife-saving services such as HBV vaccination, HBsAg, and HCV antibody testing were available on-site at most HIV treatment sites participating in the IeDEA network. Lower availability at rural sites suggests that expansion of services is important to eliminate HBV and HCV as public health problems in people receiving HIV care.
