1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) have the highest HIV incidence rates among all men who have sex with men (MSM) and have been less likely than other MSM to be diagnosed, linked or retained in care for HIV. The Promoting Our Worth, Equality, and Resilience (POWER) study administered a behavioral health survey and HIV test to BMSM to estimate the HIV continuum of care among a community-derived sample. Of the N = 1,680 BMSM living with HIV, n = 956 (56.9%) were aware of their HIV-positive status. BMSM who had been previously diagnosed reported progression through the care continuum at greater than 80% for linkage to medical care (97.6%), retention in medical care (97.3%), prescription of antiretroviral therapy (93.6%) and viral suppression (86.4%). Results of this analysis reveal the urgent need to ensure BMSM are being screened and diagnosed. Additionally, community-driven samples are a promising method offering the opportunity to build on the resilience of BMSM progressing though the continuum as well as engage BMSM not yet in care. Lastly, such methods can assist in communicating with those lost to retention.
