Brief Report: Temporal Changes in HIV Transmission Patterns Among Young Men Who Have Sex With Men, United States, 2009-2016.
Article in Journal of acquired immune deficiency syndromes (1999), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundIn the United States, young men (aged 13-24 years) who have sex with men (MSM) bear a disproportionate burden of HIV. Transmission among MSM has been found to be disassortative by age.
methodsWe analyzed HIV-1 pol sequences reported to the US National HIV Surveillance System from MSM with HIV diagnosed during 2009-2016. Using an HIV genetic transmission network, we identified persons with closely related viruses (ie, genetic distance ≤1.5%) and used multivariable logistic regression to examine changes from 2009-2012 to 2013-2016 in proportions of MSM linked to young MSM who were >5 years older or of the same race/ethnicity.
resultsAmong 9510 young MSM linked to another MSM with a closely related virus, 37% linked to an older MSM and 62% linked to an MSM of the same race/ethnicity. Comparing 2013-2016 with 2009-2012, we found increases in linkage of older MSM to young MSM, with the most substantial increases seen in Hispanic/Latinos aged 13-19 [adjusted prevalence ratio (APR) = 1.31, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.11 to 1.56] and blacks aged 13-19 (APR = 1.23, CI = 1.06 to 1.41) and 20-24 years (APR = 1.14, CI = 1.02 to 1.28). By contrast, change in linkage patterns among racial/ethnic groups was unremarkable.
conclusionsWe found evidence of increased age mixing among MSM with respect to HIV transmission over time, which coincides temporally with changes in partner-seeking behavior such as increased use of mobile applications. These findings indicate the importance of social factors on HIV sexual and transmission networks and suggest that prevention efforts need to effectively reach MSM of all ages.
