Modeling the Intervention of HIV Transmission across Intertwined Key Populations.
Article in Scientific reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
The HIV transmissions between multiple key populations make interventions difficult, particularly with multiple transmission behaviors. It remains unclear how significant the role of bridge individuals (who connect multiple communities) is in HIV transmission, and how to develop more effective intervention strategies targeting different transmission modes across key populations. In this research, we proposed a 2-layer social network framework to simulate the HIV transmissions across female sex workers (FSWs) and persons who inject drugs (PWID) through two behaviors: unprotected sex and needle-sharing. We proposed a set of intervention strategies based on the topological properties of individuals in the social network and estimated the efficacy of these strategies. Simulation studies demonstrated that bridge individuals played a significant role in HIV transmissions across the two networks. Prevention on such bridge individuals could help reduce both the scale and speed of HIV transmissions.
