1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) is increasing among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in Ethiopia; however, evidence on NCD prevalence among those receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART) is limited. This study assessed the magnitude of NCDs and associated factors among adult PLHIV attending ART clinics in general hospitals of Sidama Region, Ethiopia. We conducted a hospital-based cross-sectional study, involving 422 PLHIV selected through systematic random sampling. Data were collected using Kobo Toolbox and analyzed with SPSS version 26. Logistic regression identified factors associated with NCDs. The magnitude of NCDs was 24.8% (95% CI: 20.6%, 28.9%). The most common conditions included hypertension (7%), diabetes (5.7%), cardiovascular diseases (4.8%), cancers (4%), and chronic respiratory diseases (3.3%). Older age, urban residence, opportunistic infections, overweight/obesity, and abnormal waist circumference were significantly associated factors. NCDs are common among adult PLHIV in the region, necessitating integrated ART and NCD screening.
