Statewide Evaluation of New HIV Diagnoses in Rhode Island: Implications for Prevention.
Article in Public health reports (Washington, D.C. : 1974). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectivesPatterns of HIV transmission vary widely across demographic groups. Identifying and engaging these groups are necessary to prevent new infections and diagnose disease among people who are unaware of their infection. The objective of this study was to determine characteristics of newly diagnosed individuals across an entire state to determine patterns of HIV transmission.
methodsWe evaluated data on people with new HIV diagnoses in Rhode Island from 2013 through 2015. We performed a latent class analysis (LCA) to identify underlying demographic and behavioral characteristics of people with newly diagnosed HIV.
resultsOf 167 people with new HIV diagnoses interviewed in Rhode Island from 2013 through 2015, 132 (79%) were male, 84 (50%) were nonwhite, 112 (67%) were men who have sex with men (MSM), 112 (67%) were born in the United States, and 61 (37%) were born in Rhode Island. LCA revealed 2 major classes. Of the 98 people in class 1, 96% were male, 85% were MSM, 80% were white, 94% were born in the United States, and 80% believed they acquired HIV in Rhode Island. Class 2 was 63% male and 69% Hispanic/Latino; 29% were born in the United States, and 61% believed they acquired HIV in Rhode Island.
conclusionsMost new HIV diagnoses in Rhode Island were among MSM born in the United States, and a substantial number were likely infected in-state. People with newly diagnosed HIV who were foreign-born, including Hispanic/Latino and heterosexual groups, were less likely to have acquired HIV in Rhode Island than were MSM. HIV prevention approaches, including pre-exposure prophylaxis, should be adapted to the needs of specific groups. Rhode Island offers lessons for other states focused on eliminating HIV transmission.
