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
Among places where people living with HIV experience and anticipate HIV-related stigma, stigma in health care settings may be particularly harmful. Utilizing an exploratory sequential mixed methods approach, we conducted interviews (n = 76) and questionnaires (N = 460) with older adult women living with HIV enrolled in the Women's Interagency HIV Study in Birmingham, AL; Jackson, MS; Atlanta, GA; and San Francisco, CA. Interviews addressed facilitators and barriers to HIV treatment adherence, including HIV-related stigma. Qualitative data were coded using thematic analysis. Questionnaires assessed self-reported antiretroviral therapy (ART) adherence and experienced and anticipated HIV-related stigma from various sources (i.e., health care personnel, family, partner, and community). Covariate-adjusted logistic regression analyses examined total and mediated effects of stigma on ART adherence. Interviewees described fears and experiences of stigma in health care settings; including privacy violations, disrespect for patient autonomy, and reproductive coercion; and how these influenced their adherence to HIV treatment recommendations. Experienced and anticipated HIV-related stigma in health care settings were associated with suboptimal (or <95%) ART adherence in separate models controlling for experienced or anticipated stigma, respectively, from other sources. When entered together, only anticipated stigma in health care settings was associated with suboptimal ART adherence, controlling for anticipated and experienced stigma from other sources. The effect of anticipated stigma in health care settings on suboptimal ART adherence may work through the pathways of lower adherence self-efficacy, higher depressive symptoms, and higher coping by substance use. These findings indicate that interventions should promote cultures of acceptance within health care settings and resilience-based strategies for women to combat stigma and promote life-sustaining behaviors.
