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.

Abstract

Gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM) are at high-risk of HIV infection in the United States. Daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has demonstrated efficacy in reducing HIV acquisition among MSM. However, PrEP uptake in real-world clinical settings has been slow and uneven. Guided by Self-Regulation Theory, we developed and evaluated a brief (15-25 min) motivational interviewing (MI)-based intervention to promote PrEP uptake in an uncontrolled pilot trial. Nineteen MSM were recruited during the course of routine HIV screening at a sexually transmitted diseases clinic. We administered the 2-session intervention in-person and by telephone. Thirteen (72%) participants completed baseline and 1-month follow-up assessments; all found the intervention and its components highly acceptable. Over the 1-month period, seven participants (37%) obtained a PrEP prescription, more than tripling the rate previously observed with PrEP counseling and referrals alone (11%). The most common barrier to uptake was out-of-pocket costs. This approach was feasible and underscored the need for financial assistance and other PrEP navigation services to supplement behavioral interventions to enhance PrEP uptake.
