Incidence of HIV Infection and Sexually Transmitted Infections and Related Risk Factors Among Very Young Men Who Have Sex With Men.
Article in Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999), 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 78 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
introductionThe HIV epidemic continues to disproportionately affect men who have sex with men (MSM) in the United States, with over a third of new infections in MSM occurring in younger men. Very few studies have reported on HIV and sexually transmitted infection (STI) incidence and related risks among younger MSM, particularly among minors under 18 years of age.
methodsData analyzed herein are from a longitudinal study of HIV risk among 450 very young MSM in Chicago aged 16 to 20, recruited via respondent-driven sampling and followed-up for 2 years, with annual HIV and STI testing. We report estimated cumulative HIV and STI incidence over the 24-month follow-up using Kaplan-Meier methods and evaluated associations with incident infections using Cox proportional hazards regression.
resultsThe final analytic sample was primarily non-white (83%); median age was 19; 25% of the sample was under age 18. Twenty-six new HIV infections were detected over 632 person-years of follow-up. HIV incidence was 4.11/100 person-years [95% confidence interval (CI): 2.80 to 6.04] and STI incidence was 6.22/100 person-years (95% CI: 4.54 to 8.51). Cumulative HIV incidence over 24 months of follow-up was 7.32% (95% CI: 5.05 to 10.57), with higher incidence among racial/ethnic minorities. In multivariate analyses, non-white race and recent sexual partner concurrency were associated with both HIV and STI infection; HIV testing history and sex with an HIV-positive partner were associated with increased risk of HIV infection. DISCUSSION: High rates of incident HIV infection and STIs among very young MSM and the relationship between incidence and race/ethnicity, concurrency and partner characteristics indicate potential focal points of future intervention and the need for continued vigilance.
