HIV Incidence Among Men Who Have Sex with Men and Inject Drugs in a Canadian Setting.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Few data on HIV incidence among men who have sex with men and inject drugs (MSM-PWID) are available. Drawing on a prospective cohort in Vancouver, Canada, we examined the relationship between MSM status and HIV incidence among PWID using Kaplan-Meier analyses and extended Cox regression. Data were collected from 1996 to 2014 and analyzed in 2017. Of 1131 HIV-negative male PWID, 8.6% (n = 97) reported sex with men over the study period. MSM status was crudely associated with HIV incidence [Hazard Ratio (HR) = 1.81; 95% CI 1.08-3.03], but not after adjustment for daily cocaine injection and syringe borrowing (Adjusted HR = 1.33; 95% CI 0.78-2.28). Findings highlight the need for harm reduction interventions and socio-behavioral research focused on MSM-PWID.
