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 assessment of a person's quality of life as it relates to health, HIV status and intimate partner violence (IPV) among women has been limited in its scope of investigation. Consequently, little is known about the adjusted and combined effects of IPV and HIV on women's health status and QOL. 445 women (188 HIV + 257 HIV -) residing in an urban low income area were interviewed regarding current IPV experiences (no IPV, IPV more than 1 year ago, IPV in last year), HIV status (positive and negative), use of illicit drugs, and presence of instrumental social support. Health-related QOL (HRQOL) was measured using the MOS-HIV. Stratified bivariate analyses demonstrate that living with HIV or having experienced IPV in the past year was significantly associated with poorer levels of HRQOL. Multiple logistic regression models indicate a robust negative relationship between the experience of IPV in the past year, living with HIV, use of illicit drugs and a protective effect of social support on women's reported HRQOL. The results of the bivariate and multivariate analyses provide evidence that there are independent and adjusted detrimental associations of the experience of IPV and living with HIV with women's HRQOL. As HRQOL is a good indicator of physical and mental health, these findings should alert health care and other service providers to their responsibility to screen and treat women experiencing intimate partner violence and living with HIV.
