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.

2 · The registry

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

While the national HIV infection rate is decreasing, the highest rates of infections continue among men who have sex with men (MSM), particularly minority MSM. It is important to understand attitudes, knowledge, and behaviors surrounding HIV prevention methods, such as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). In the present study, we created a snapshot of the PrEP continuum of care and identified participant demographic and sources of PrEP awareness factors that were associated with PrEP initiation. Data were collected using anonymous paper-based surveys employing a venue intercept procedure. A total of 188 HIV-negative men completed the survey at Miami Gay Pride 2018. Participants answered questions regarding demographics, PrEP use, and sources of PrEP awareness. The sample was majority Hispanic (55.4%), gay (83.0%), and single (57.7%). The constructed PrEP continuum revealed that a low proportion of those identified as PrEP naïve (n = 143) for HIV infection had PrEP interest (49/143). Moreover, among those who initiated PrEP (n = 45), a high proportion were retained in a PrEP program (37/45), with approximately half achieving medication adherence (25/45). Age group, PrEP knowledge, and source of PrEP awareness were all significantly associated with PrEP initiation. In areas with high HIV infection rates, studies like these offer crucial insight on how public health practitioners should proceed in the goal of decreasing HIV transmission rates. More research is needed to increase PrEP uptake and adherence.
