Factors Related to Biological Sex Differences in Engagement with Healthcare Providers in Persons Living with HIV.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Little is known about how engagement with healthcare providers mediates the relationship between psychosocial factors (anxiety, depression, stigma) and medication adherence among persons living with HIV (PLWH). Moreover, little research has investigated potential biological sex differences in this relationship. We conducted a secondary analysis of data collected from four projects (N = 281) focused on improving health outcomes in PLWH. Males displayed (a) negative association between depression and engagement with healthcare providers (β = - 0.02, z = - 3.20, p = 0.001) and (b) positive association between engagement with healthcare providers and medication adherence (β = 0.55, OR = 1.73, z = 2.62, p = 0.009). Females showed no association between any of these factors. Anxiety and stigma were not significantly associated with medication adherence. Path analysis modeling for males had a very good fit (CFI = 1, TLI = 1, RMSEA = 0); none of the regression coefficients was significant for females. The significant relationship between depression and medication adherence among males was fully mediated by engagement with healthcare providers. Findings suggest that adherence interventions for PLWH should be tailored by biological sex.
