Spatial dimensions of research on alcohol and sexual risk: a case example from a Mumbai study.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Alcohol's role in unprotected sex is an important issue in the spread of HIV. Research on alcohol use in many countries has found complex relationships between individual characteristics, places where people drink, and consumption patterns. Data on drinking and leisure time activities and locations from in-person surveys with 1,239 young men aged 18-29 living in low-income communities in Mumbai, India, were analyzed. For every pair of men, an index of association measured the degree of similarity in their reported activities in specific communities. Multidimensional scaling of the similarity matrix revealed men who engaged in similar activities in the same communities. Hierarchical grouping classified men based on their activity dimensions. The ten groups of men, distinguished by their activities in particular communities, also differed in alcohol consumption, number of non-spousal sex partners, and level of unprotected sex. Understanding where activities take place is important in designing venue-based interventions to reduce health risk behaviors leading to the spread of HIV/AIDS.
