Factors associated with changes in uptake of HIV testing among young women (aged 15-24) in Tanzania from 2003 to 2012.

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
backgroundThis study explored the factors associated with changes in HIV testing uptake among young women in Tanzania, based on an analysis of data from the 2003-2004 Tanzania HIV/AIDS Indicator Survey, and the 2007-2008 and 2011-2012 Tanzania HIV/AIDS and Malaria Indicator Surveys.
methodsThe study population consisted of young women aged 15-24 years at the time of the survey. Multivariate decomposition analysis was used to assess factors associated with changes in HIV testing uptake between the 2003-2004 and 2007-2008 surveys, and between the 2007-2008 and 2011-2012 surveys.
resultsHIV testing uptake among the study population was 7 % in 2003-2004, 31 % in 2007-2008 and 40 % in 2011-2012. The time period of the survey had a substantial effect on the uptake of HIV testing independent of other covariates. The characteristics that were significantly associated with a higher chance of HIV testing uptake across the surveys were age (20-24), education level (primary and secondary), ever being married, having at least one lifetime sexual partner, having a sexually transmitted infection or associated symptoms, and receiving antenatal care.
conclusionsChanges in the study participants' characteristics in the 2003-2004 survey compared with the 2007-2008 survey were associated with a decrease in HIV testing uptake. Comparing the 2007-2008 survey with the 2011-2012 survey shows that the changes in the participants' characteristics contributed to 22 % of the changes in HIV testing uptake, while 78 % of the changes were attributed to coefficients.
