Development and Content Validation of a Patient-Reported Sexual Risk Measure for Use in Primary Care.
Article in Journal of general internal medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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.
Who cites it

Abstract
backgroundPatient-provider sexual risk behavior discussions occur infrequently but may be facilitated by high-quality sexual risk screening tools.
objectiveTo develop the Sexual Risk Behavior Inventory (SRBI), a brief computer-administered patient-reported measure.
designQualitative item development/quantitative instrument validation.
participantsWe developed SRBI items based on patient interviews (n = 128) at four geographically diverse US primary care clinics. Patients were diverse in gender identity, sex, sexual orientation, age, race/ethnicity, and HIV status. We compared sexual risk behavior identified by the SRBI and the Risk Assessment Battery (RAB) among patients (n = 422). APPROACH: We constructed an item pool based on validated measures of sexual risk, developed an in-depth interview guide based on pool content, and used interviews to elicit new sexual risk concepts. We coded concepts, matched them to item pool content, and developed new content where needed. A provider team evaluated item clinical relevance. We conducted cognitive interviews to assess item comprehensibility. We administered the SRBI and the RAB to patients. KEY
resultsCommon, clinically relevant concepts in the SRBI included number of sex partners; partner HIV status; partner use of antiretroviral medication (ART)/pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP); and recent sex without barrier protection, direction of anal sex, and concern regarding HIV/STI exposure. While 90% reported inconsistent condom use on the RAB, same-day SRBI administration revealed that for over one third, all their partners were on ART/PrEP.
conclusionThe SRBI is a brief, skip-patterned, clinically relevant measure that ascertains sexual risk behavior across sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, partner HIV serostatus, and partner treatment status, furnishing providers with context to determine gradations of risk for HIV/STI.
