Impact of COVID-19 and factors associated with long COVID and COVID-19 vaccine uptake in people with HIV in the United Kingdom: Results from Positive Voices 2022.

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
objectivesWe assessed the impact of COVID-19, and the prevalence and factors associated with a history of COVID-19 infection, long COVID and incomplete COVID-19 vaccine uptake among people with HIV.
methodsPositive Voices 2022 is a questionnaire study of people accessing HIV care in the United Kingdom (March 2022-April 2023). Logistic regression assessed factors associated with a history of COVID-19 (previous positive test), long COVID among those with a history of COVID-19 (ongoing symptoms, with COVID-19 onset >3 months previously) and incomplete COVID-19 vaccine uptake (less than three doses of vaccine), adjusted for: age; gender; ethnicity; and year of HIV diagnosis.
resultsIn all, 4188 participants were included. Commonly reported negative impacts of the pandemic were on social contact (44% of participants), mental health (30%), healthcare access (26%) and financial security (25%). Overall, 2068 of 4188 (49.4%) participants had a history of COVID-19. Of these, 10.8% met criteria for long COVID, associated with female gender, unemployment, financial hardship, earlier HIV diagnosis date, diabetes diagnosis, asthma/chronic obstructive pulmonary disease diagnosis, obesity and symptoms of depression and anxiety. Overall, 95.8% reported having at least one vaccine dose, but 649 (15.7%) participants had incomplete vaccine uptake, associated with younger age, female gender, Black African ethnicity, lower education, financial hardship, unemployment, multioccupancy household, more recent HIV diagnosis, detectable HIV viral load and symptoms of depression and anxiety.
conclusionsAbout half of participants had a history of COVID-19, of whom 11% had persistent symptoms (long COVID). COVID-19 vaccine uptake was high, but incomplete uptake was apparent for 16% of participants and was more common among women, younger people, Black African individuals and those with socio-economic disadvantage.
