Oral Microbiota Dysbiosis in Male HIV Patients: Comparative Analysis of Candidiasis and HPV-Associated Lesions.
Article in Microorganisms, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Progressive immune damage associated with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) alters mucosal homeostasis, favouring oral microbial imbalance and the development of opportunistic infections. The aim of this study was to characterize the composition and structure of the oral microbiota in different clinical conditions of HIV infection. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 99 Mexican men divided into five groups: HIV-negative controls, newly diagnosed without antiretroviral treatment, virally suppressed, with oral candidiasis, and with HPV infection. Metagenomic DNA was obtained from salivary samples, and the V1-V3 region of the 16S rRNA gene was massively sequenced. Taxonomic profiles, alpha/beta diversity, differential abundance, microbial co-occurrence networks and degree of dysbiosis were analysed. The results showed distinctive profiles between the groups. Alpha and beta diversity was significantly higher in the groups with oral
