Evaluation of a training aimed at building capacity for outreaching to men who have sex with men and transgender women in Indonesia.
Article in Health education research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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.

Abstract
Implementers of outreach program in Indonesia often provide formal training for their outreach workers (OWs) only at the startup. We believe continuous training can be provided by experienced OWs at any time if an appropriate training package is available. Using a one-group pre-test-post-test study design; we developed, implemented and evaluated an OW-informed training program aimed at increasing OWs' knowledge and skills for outreaching to men who have sex with men and transgender women. We analyzed longitudinal data from 75 OWs from 7 Indonesian cities using one-way within-subjects ANOVA to examine the effects of the training program on participants' knowledge and perceived skills over time Average overall knowledge among participants increased from pre-test to immediate post-test (P < 0.001) and from pre-test to 2-month post-test (P < 0.001), especially in basic human immunodeficiency virus and sexual transmitted infections; condoms and lubricants; sexual and reproductive health and rights; sexual orientation and gender identity and expression; and stages of behavior change. Average overall perceived skills increased significantly from pre-test to 2-month post-test (P = 0.018), especially in creating innovative outreach approaches; building effective teamwork; and coordinating with healthcare providers. This training package increased knowledge and perceived skills among OWs. Thus, if consistently applied, it could help maintaining quality of the outreach program.
