Incidence of prostate cancer in Medicaid beneficiaries with and without HIV in 2001-2015 in 14 states.
Article in AIDS care, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Prostate cancer (PCa) incidence is reportedly lower in men with HIV compared to men without HIV for unknown reasons. We describe PCa incidence by HIV status in Medicaid beneficiaries, allowing for comparison of men with and without HIV who are similar with respect to socioeconomic characteristics and access to healthcare. Men (N = 15,167,636) aged 18-64 with ≥7 months of continuous enrollment during 2001-2015 in 14 US states were retained for analysis. Diagnoses of HIV and PCa were identified using non-drug claims. We estimated cause-specific (csHR) comparing incidence of PCa by HIV status, adjusted for age, race-ethnicity, state of residence, year of enrollment, and comorbid conditions, and stratified by age and race-ethnicity. Hazard of PCa was lower in men with HIV than men without HIV (csHR = 0.89; 95% CI: 0.80, 0.99), but varied by race-ethnicity, with similar observations among non-Hispanic Black (csHR = 0.79; 95% CI: 0.69, 0.91) and Hispanic (csHR = 0.85; 95% CI: 0.67, 1.09), but not non-Hispanic white men (csHR = 1.17; 95% CI: 0.91, 1.50). Findings were similar in models restricted to men aged 50-64 and 40-49, but not in men aged 18-39. Reported deficits in PCa incidence by HIV status may be restricted to specific groups defined by age and race ethnicity.
