Pilot evaluation of a standardized patient actor training intervention to improve HIV care for adolescents and young adults in Kenya.
Article in AIDS care, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06509113 (Reducing Stigmatizing Attitudes and Behaviors of Nursing Students in Simulated Clinical Visits of Patients Living With HIV in Iran), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Poor retention in HIV care remains a major problem for Adolescents and Young Adults (AYA). A Standardized Patient (SP) clinical training intervention was developed to improve healthcare worker (HCW) "adolescent-friendly" competencies in Kenya. Professional actors were trained to portray HIV-infected AYA according to standardized scripts. HCWs completed a 2-day SP training that included didactic sessions, 7 video-recorded SP encounters, and group debriefing. AYA health experts rated HCWs by reviewing the video recordings. All HCWs (10/10) reported high satisfaction with the intervention and overall improvement in self-rated competency in caring for HIV-infected AYA. Cases were reported to be realistic and relevant by between 7 and 10 of 10 HCWs. The case on disclosure and adherence was rated as most challenging in communication and making medical decisions by HCWs. Areas identified by SPs for improvement by HCWs included allowing patients time to ask questions, and enabling SP to share sensitive information. The overall ICC by experts was low 0.27 (95% CI: -0.79 to 0.95), however, ICCs in assessment of HIV disclosure 0.78 (95% CI: 0.17-0.98), and sexual behavior 0.97 (95% CI: 0.89-0.99) were high. This intervention was acceptable for Kenyan HCWs and improved self-rated competency in caring for HIV-infected AYA.
