Cervical cancer screening uptake and correlates among HIV-infected women: a cross-sectional survey in Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa.
Article in BMJ open, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 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
objectivesDespite the increasing number of interventions aiming to integrate cervical cancer screening into HIV clinics in sub-Saharan Africa, Women living with HIV (WLHIV) still have a high risk of developing cervical cancer. The aim of this study was to estimate the coverage of cervical cancer screening and associated factors among WLHIV in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.
designCross-sectional survey conducted from May to August 2017. SETTINGS: Outpatient setting in the four highest volume urban HIV clinics of government's or non-governmental organisation's sector in Côte d'Ivoire.
participantsAll WLHIV, aged 25-55 years, followed since at least 1 year, selected through a systematic sampling procedure.
interventionA standardised questionnaire administered to each participant by trained healthcare workers. OUTCOME: Cervical cancer screening uptake.
resultsA total of 1991 WLHIV were included in the study, aged in median 42 years (IQR 37-47), and a median CD4 count (last known) of 563 (378-773) cells/mm
conclusionInitiatives to support cervical cancer screening in HIV care programmes resulted in effective access to more than half of the WLHIV in Abidjan. Efforts are still needed to provide universal access to cervical cancer screening, especially among socioeconomically disadvantaged WLHIV.
