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

For ten years now the Aids epidemic has worried mankind. In the same time the virus has spread all over the world. Ever more people fall ill. 56,000 cases of Aids have been notified only in Europe until June 1991. Prognoses for the future are difficult to make, some areas will be strongly affected. The surveillance and epidemiology for HIV and Aids are to be expanded with reasonable means. Such knowledge will serve as basis for prevention, which in some areas and with certain groups has already shown a certain effectiveness in the last years. In Switzerland e.g., use of condoms in the age group of 17-30 with casual sexual contacts has increased from 7% (1986) to about 50% (1991). The number of sexually transmitted diseases has decreased. Solidarity is the basis for effective prevention programmes concerning Aids. Maturity of people concerning health has to be stimulated by means of information and education.
