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

In a study of sexually-active HIV-negative men who have sex with men (MSM) in China, we compared behavioral indication for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) based on risk criteria to self-perception of PrEP candidacy (SPC) and explored factors associated with SPC. Of 708 MSM surveyed, 323 (45.6%) were behaviorally-indicated for PrEP, among whom 42.1% self-perceived as appropriate PrEP candidates. In a multivariable model we found no association between sexual behavior nor HIV risk perception and SPC but found that higher perceived benefits of PrEP, increased frequency of HIV testing, and low condom use self-efficacy were positively-associated with SPC. In a sub-analysis restricted to MSM behaviorally-indicated for PrEP, relationship-factors were also significant. Our findings suggest that PrEP implementers should look beyond risk criteria to consider shared decision-making tools that support individuals to assess whether they are appropriate PrEP candidates based on their existing HIV prevention strategies, sexual health goals, and relationship dynamics.
