Dyslipidemia and Associated Factors Among People Living With HIV on Dolutegravir-Based Antiretroviral Therapy in Central Uganda.

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
introductionDolutegravir (DTG)-based antiretroviral therapy (ART) use has been associated with excessive weight gain, increasing the risk of dyslipidemias such as hypercholesterolemia. We assessed the prevalence of, and associated factors with dyslipidemia among adults on DTG-based ART.Materials and methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study among 281 systematically sampled adults on DTG-based ART for ≥ 6 months at Kira Health Centre IV, Wakiso District, Central Uganda. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, medical record reviews, anthropometric measurements, and laboratory biomarker analysis. Logistic regression was used to determine associated factors, and the predictive performance of obesity indices was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.ResultsThe prevalence of dyslipidemia was 44.1% 95% CI: 38.4%-50.0%. Low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol was the most common abnormality, affecting 39.9% of participants, followed by elevated total cholesterol at 5.7% [95% CI: 3.51-9.11] and elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol at 5.0%. High waist circumference (WC) was significantly associated with dyslipidemia; (aPR: 1.93, 95% CI: 1.15-3.24,
