Article in AIDS care, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
Sex exchange is associated with HIV and other morbidities yet has received little research, surveillance, and programmatic attention in the U.S. This study identified correlates of exchange sex and among low-income women in Baltimore, Maryland. Participants were recruited into the National HIV Behavioral Surveillance (NHBS) system in 2013 using respondent driven sampling (RDS) and completed a survey and HIV testing. The analytic sample (n = 253) consisted of women aged ≥18 years who had recent (past year) heterosexual sex. Multivariable logistic regression identified correlates of recent exchange sex. Independently associated with recent exchange sex were history of injection drug use (adjusted odds ratio (AOR) = 3.4, 95% CI: 1.1-10.3), recent prescription painkiller use (AOR = 3.7, 95% CI: 1.4-9.9), recent crack/cocaine use (AOR = 6.6, 95% CI: 2.1-20.9), recent arrest (AOR = 4.1, 95% CI: 1.2-14.8), and recent consistent condom use (AOR 1.1; 95% CI: 1.0-1.3). Women who exchanged sex exhibited heightened social and structural vulnerability and substance use. These data demonstrate the need for further research examining the context of exchange sex among low-income women and synergies between substance use and HIV risk.
