Human Immunodeficiency Virus Training Pathways in Residency: A National Survey of Curricula and Outcomes.
Article in Clinical infectious diseases : an official publication of the Infectious Diseases Society of America, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundThe Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative, which aims to decrease the annual incidence of HIV infections in the United States (US) by 90% over the next decade, will require growth of a limited HIV provider workforce. Existing HIV training pathways within Family Medicine (FM) and Internal Medicine (IM) residency programs may address the shortage of HIV medical providers, but their curricula and outcomes have not previously been assessed.
methodsWe identified HIV residency pathways via literature review, Internet search, and snowball sampling and designed a cross-sectional study of existing HIV pathways in the US. This survey of pathway directors included 33 quantitative items regarding pathway organization, curricular content, graduate outcomes, and challenges. We used descriptive statistics to summarize responses.
resultsTwenty-five residency programs with dedicated HIV pathways in the US were identified (14 FM and 11 IM), with most located in the West and Northeast. All 25 (100%) pathway directors completed the survey. Since 2006, a total of 228 residents (77 FM and 151 IM) have graduated from these HIV pathways. Ninety (39%) of 228 pathway graduates provide primary care to persons with HIV (PWH).
conclusionsHIV pathways are effective in graduating providers who can care for PWH, but generally are not located in nor do graduates practice in the geographic areas of highest need. Our findings can inform quality improvement for existing programs, development of new pathways, and workforce development strategies. Specifically, expanding pathways in regions of greatest need and incentivizing pathway graduates to work in these regions could augment the HIV workforce.
