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

Disclosure of HIV status is widely promoted in the prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT), but a number of context-specific factors may mediate disclosure outcomes. To better understand HIV-disclosure dynamics, we conducted in-depth interviews among 62 HIV-positive pregnant women accessing PMTCT services in Durban, South Africa. Transcripts were coded for emergent themes and categories. Thirty-nine women (63 %) had been recently diagnosed with HIV; most (n = 37; 95 %) were diagnosed following routine antenatal HIV testing. Forty-two women (68 %) reported unplanned pregnancies. Overall, 37 women (60 %) reported an unintended pregnancy and recent HIV diagnosis. For them, 2 life-changing diagnoses had resulted in a double-disclosure bind. The timing and stigma surrounding these events strongly influenced disclosure of pregnancy and/or HIV. PMTCT-related counseling must be responsive to the complex personal implications of contemporaneous, life-changing events, especially their effect on HIV-disclosure dynamics and, ultimately, on achieving better maternal mental-health outcomes.
