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

Background: To compare immune reconstitution and long-term survival outcomes between long-term HIV-1 infected individuals (LTHIs) and typical progressors (TPs) under long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART) using a prospective HIV cohort in Yining City, China, and to provide evidence for risk stratification and follow-up management in long-term HIV care. Methods: The study included eligible people living with HIV (PLWH) from a prospective cohort in Yining City, China, with the observation period ending on 1 April 2024. Immune reconstitution (IR) was defined as the most recent CD4 Results: A total of 4,844 PLWH were included, comprising 2,788 LTHIs and 2,056 TPs. After PSM, 1,799 matched pairs were obtained. In the matched cohort, IR was achieved in 76.9% (1,384/1799) of LTHIs and 35.9% (646/1799) of TPs. LTHIs had a markedly higher probability of IR, with an absolute risk difference of 41.0% and an adjusted RR of 2.04 (95% CI: 1.92-2.17; Conclusion: Even under long-term ART, LTHIs showed a higher probability of immune reconstitution and lower post-classification all-cause mortality compared with TPs. These findings suggest that the initial disease progression pattern was independently associated with immune reconstitution and post-classification mortality risk, and may help inform risk stratification in long-term HIV care.
