Implementation and impact of a technology-based HIV risk-reduction intervention among Thai men who have sex with men using "Vialogues": a randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in AIDS care, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
We conducted a randomized control trial to evaluate the impact of a novel technology-based intervention on HIV risks and condom use behaviors among Thai men who have sex with men (MSM). Between April 2016 and August 2017, participants aged 18 years and above, and having engaged in unprotected sex in past six months were randomly assigned to control and intervention arm, and received HIV testing at baseline, month 6 and 12. Intervention arm participants engaged in 12-monthly HIV/STI prevention educational sessions delivered via Vialogues.com. Of 76 MSM enrolled, 37 were randomized to intervention and 39 to control arm. Median age was 28 (IQR 24-32) years. Thirty-three (89.2%) intervention arm participants completed all 12-monthly Vialogues sessions. At month 12, intervention arm had higher retention rate (
