Efficacy and Safety of Tesamorelin in People Living With HIV (PLWH) With Lipodystrophy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Synthesis 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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BackgroundHIV-associated lipodystrophy, a complication of combined antiretroviral therapy (CART), causes significant physical and psychological distress in people living with HIV (PLWH), compromising treatment adherence. Tesamorelin, a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analogue, has emerged as a therapeutic option.ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of tesamorelin in HIV-infected individuals with lipodystrophy receiving CART, incorporating GRADE assessment.MethodsWe searched PubMed, https://ClinicalTrials.gov, and Scopus from inception to February 9, 2026, for randomized controlled trials evaluating tesamorelin in HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Mean differences (MD) and risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using random-effects models with heterogeneity assessed by I
