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

One of the major goals of couple-based HIV prevention programs in sub-Saharan Africa is to reduce outside sex partners, known as sexual concurrency. This cross-sectional study examined sexual concurrency at the couple-level and differentiated couples based on whether neither, one, or both partners engaged in sexual concurrency over the past 6 months. Individual predictors (alcohol use and lifetime history of physical or sexual trauma) and relationship predictors (mistrust, relationship inequity, relationship satisfaction, and sexual satisfaction) were used as predictors of couple-level sexual concurrency. A quantitative investigation using path analysis was carried out with data collected from 286 South African heterosexual couples. Results showed that alcohol use for both sexes, relationship dissatisfaction for women, and mistrust among women were predictive of different types of sexual concurrency. Findings suggest that consideration of the experiences and behavior of both partners may be useful in understanding different reasons for engagement in sexual concurrency.
