HIV testing preferences among pregnant women attending antenatal care and their male partners: a discrete choice experiment in Uganda.
Article in African journal of AIDS research : AJAR, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 3 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
HIV testing rates remain stubbornly low among men - a crucial target population for reaching the ambitious global and regional goals of the HIV programme. In an era of declining donor funding, identifying cost-effective strategies to increase testing rates amongst men remains paramount. Antenatal care is an effective entry-point for the delivery of HIV testing services for women, and partner testing presents an important opportunity to reach their male partners. We present the results of a discrete choice experiment in Uganda, examining preferences among 824 pregnant women and 896 male partners regarding service delivery characteristics of HIV testing. Both men and women preferred nurse administered testing to self-testing (OR = 0.835;
