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 registryThe 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.

6 · The paper itselfAbstract
Our study aimed to describe the HIV care continuum and explore factors related to viral suppression among people on methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) who use methamphetamine (meth) in Vietnam. We used baseline data of participants living with HIV (PLWH) from a clinical trial in Vietnam. Among 132 PLWH, 95.5% knew their HIV status, 91.7% were on antiretroviral therapy (ART), and 79.5% achieved viral suppression (< 20 copies/mL). Being currently on ART and not early meth use were associated with viral suppression. The findings highlight the importance of enhancing ART engagement among meth-using PLWH on MMT, especially those who began meth use early in life.
