Tuberculosis Among Men Who Have Sex With Men Living With HIV in Israel: A Retrospective Nationwide Cohort Study, 2000-2025.
Article 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
ObjectivesThis study compared men who have sex with men (MSM) who lived with HIV (LWHIV) and tuberculosis to MSM LWHIV without tuberculosis and estimated tuberculosis incidence among MSM-LWHIV over 25-years.MethodsData from the Israeli national tuberculosis and HIV registries between 2000 and 2025 were cross-matched by patients' identifiers to compare MSM LWHIV and tuberculosis to other MSM LWHIV older than 15 years. They were followed up from HIV-diagnosis until they developed TB, died, left Israel or end-2025.ResultsOf 3,018 MSM LWHIV who were followed-up for 30,617 person-years, 16 (0.5%) developed tuberculosis, compared with 244 (6.6%) non-MSM LWHIV, corresponding to 5 and 70 cases per 10,000 person-years, respectively (P<0.01). MSM LWHIV and tuberculosis were more commonly non-Israeli born, had lower CD4-counts and not been treated with antiretroviral therapy than MSM LWHIV without tuberculosis.Tuberculosis in MSM was diagnosed within a median of 2.4 years after HIV (range 0-10), and 8 (50.0%) were diagnosed concomitantly with HIV and tuberculosis. Contact tracing revealed one household exposure, while nine (52.9%) probably acquired tuberculosis while originating/visiting high-tuberculosis settings.ConclusionsTuberculosis incidence among MSM LWHIV is very low. Tuberculosis was probably acquired while originating/visiting endemic countries. Routine HIV-testing of patients with tuberculosis is recommended.
