Getting Back on the Path to Eliminating HIV in Children.

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
introductionThe global community proved remarkably resilient in protecting the progress in and commitment to eliminating HIV in children in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, sudden disruptions in 2025 in donor support for HIV assistance have posed new and existential threats to the hard-fought gains in global paediatric HIV control. DISCUSSION: Since the early 2000s, the reductions in paediatric HIV acquisitions, in deaths in children with HIV and in the number of children orphaned by HIV/AIDS have been breathtaking, but in recent years, progress has stalled, and gaps remain. The disruptions in political and financial support from the U.S. government obligate us to reframe our plans for ending HIV as a threat to children and also enable us to implement overdue changes in strategy to overcome barriers to success. Pillars for success include: robust integration of HIV into strengthened general healthcare systems; reassertion of national government leadership; prioritizing reduced donor funding for research and innovation; stronger partnership between private sectors and public health programmes; amplified community voices; and bold determination and creative solutions from global paediatric HIV stakeholders.
conclusionsThe time is right for the global paediatric HIV community to consider the key factors that have enabled the tremendous progress towards ending the threat of HIV in children, the critical barriers to overcoming remaining gaps and a framework no longer so dependent on donor support for getting back on the path to eliminating HIV in children. The diverse and talented global HIV stakeholder coalition will find the opportunities for transformation and innovation in paediatric HIV care and boldly chart a lasting, evidence-based, person-centred, community-informed, national health system-aligned path to ending HIV as a threat to children.
