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
objectivesVery few studies in Canada address the sexual health of young Aboriginal people who use drugs; the focus in established literature has been on parenteral risks. This study sought to identify the risk factors associated with inconsistent condom use in a cohort of young Aboriginal people who live in British Columbia and use drugs.
methodsThis analysis includes baseline questionnaire data from October 2003 to April 2005. Multivariable modeling stratified by gender identified independent demographic, traumatic, sex and drug use risk factors associated with inconsistent condom use.
resultsOf the 292 women and 313 men at baseline, prevalence of inconsistent condom use during insertive sex was 59% and 46%, respectively. In multivariable logistic regression, after adjusting for age and location, inconsistent condom use among women was significantly associated with ever being enrolled in a drug/alcohol treatment program (AOR: 1.95, 95% CI: 1.06-3.60), and ever being sexually abused (AOR: 1.80, 95% CI: 1.01-3.20). Among men, inconsistent condom use was significantly associated with having more than 20 lifetime sex partners (AOR: 2.06, 95% CI: 1.24-3.44).
conclusionOur study demonstrates high rates of inconsistent condom use among young Aboriginal people who use drugs, highlighting their vulnerability to contracting sexually transmitted infections. Culturally tailored sexual health interventions must be made a priority and need to incorporate the reality of gendered differences in the context of multigenerational trauma, including non-consensual sex.
