Linking HIV prevention and care for community interventions among high-risk women in Burkina Faso--the ARNS 1222 "Yerelon" cohort.

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
backgroundInterventions targeting core groups such as high-risk women in Africa have focused mostly on HIV prevention. In this marginalized group, the delegation of HIV care to public services may jeopardize the effectiveness of prevention activities. We assessed the effect of an intervention combining prevention and care among high-risk women on HIV exposure and treatment outcomes.
methodsIn Burkina Faso, high-risk women were recruited by peer educators in an open-cohort study with 4-monthly follow-up visits. Primary prevention included peer-led information, education and communication sessions, condom distribution, regular HIV counselling and testing, and sexually transmitted infections management. Participants were offered free medical care including antiretroviral therapy (ART) and treatment adherence support by psychologists.
resultsFrom December 2003, 658 high-risk women were enrolled and followed up for a median 20.8 months. Seven of the 489 HIV-uninfected women seroconverted (HIV incidence 0.9 of 100 person-years, 95% confidence interval: 0.24 to 1.58). HIV incidence tended to be higher during the first 8 months of follow-up than thereafter (1.43 vs. 0.39 per 100 person-years). Among 47 of 169 HIV-seropositive women who started ART, 79.4% achieved undetectable plasma viral load 6 months after initiation and 81.8% at 36 months. Condom use at last sexual intercourse with clients increased from 81.7% at enrollment to 98.2% at 12 months (P < 0.001) and from 67.2% to 95.9% (P < 0.001) with regular clients.
conclusionsThe integration of HIV care services, including the provision and support of ART, with a peer-led primary prevention package is pivotal to reduce HIV incidence and is likely to modify the local HIV dynamics.
