Evaluation of HIV risk and outcomes in a nationally representative sample of incarcerated women in Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, and Ukraine.
Article in AIDS care, 2019. 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
Eastern European and Central Asian (EECA) is the only region globally where HIV incidence continues to rise. HIV is concentrated among high risk groups like prisoners. HIV prevalence is higher among women than men in both prisons and communities. Data are lacking on the HIV care continuum among female prisoners to inform effective HIV prevention and treatment interventions. This study examined HIV risk, prevalence of infectious diseases, access to care, and psychiatric comorbidities among a representative sample of 220 female prisoners in Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, and Ukraine. Prevalence of comorbid substance use and psychiatric disorders was high with nearly one-third reporting pre-incarceration drug injection and alcohol use disorder (AUD). Half of the sample reported anxiety and depression. Among the subset of 26 (11.8%) women testing HIV+, 44% had CD4 counts <350 cells/μL but less than 2% were on antiretroviral therapy (ART). Most (88.5%) women with HIV were in Ukraine, where women also experienced higher rates of hepatitis C than in Azerbaijan or Kyrgyzstan. Women in Kyrgyzstan prisons experienced higher rates of syphilis compared to the other two countries. Findings suggest that, to achieve global HIV prevention and treatment targets, HIV testing and linkage to care must be scaled up among incarcerated women in the EECA.
