Factors associated with screening for sexually transmitted infections.
Article in American journal of obstetrics and gynecology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01986439 (The Contraceptive Choice Project), which is not on this map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.

Abstract
objectiveThe purpose of this study was to determine predictors of the completion of free annual sexually transmitted infection screening among sexually active young women of ≤ 25 years old. STUDY
designWe analyzed survey data from 2607 sexually active women who were enrolled in the Contraceptive CHOICE Project, a prospective cohort study. We evaluated demographic characteristics, sexual risk behaviors, relationship characteristics, and contraceptive methods. Receipt of a home- or clinic-based test kit within 56 days of the 12-month survey constituted a completed screen. A multivariable model to predict screening completion was created with the use of Poisson regression with robust error variance.
resultsFifty-seven percent of the women completed the screening. Screening completion was associated most strongly with a college education or higher (adjusted relative risk, 1.2; 95% confidence interval, 1.1-1.3) and home-based testing (adjusted relative risk, 1.3; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-1.5).
conclusionFree and home-based testing increased screening rates among young women. To meet annual testing guidelines, the availability and use of home-based testing kits should increase.
