Living with Discordance: A Qualitative Description of the Challenges Faced by HIV Negative Married Women.
Article in International journal of community based nursing and midwifery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundSerodiscordant couples are faced with many social, sexual and relationship challenges in all aspects of their lives. The sources of conflicts could be disease acquisition, transfer of HIV to the uninfected partner, and fertility decisions. The current qualitative study was designed to explore the challenges faced by HIV negative women in serodiscordant relationships.
methodsThis qualitative description was conducted in Mashhad, Northeast of Iran, between October 2018 and June 2019. 15 HIV-negative women who were living with their HIV-positive husbands were selected through purposive sampling method. The data were collected using semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis adopted by Graneheim and Lundman. MAXQDA version 12, was used for data organization. Components of rigor including credibility, dependability, confirmability and transferability were considered.
resultsThe main overarching theme which emerged from the qualitative study was "threats to family life", consisting of five categories along with their subcategories. These categories included stigmatic reactions followed by disclosure of the status, social misconceptions and limitation of information sources, psychological disruptions, hard decision making for fertility, and role conflict in the family.
conclusionThis study provides an insight into different aspects of challenges faced by Iranian women in HIV-serodiscordant relationships. Also, our study supports the view of other investigators who believe that there is an urgent need for provision of counseling and empowerment interventions for HIV- serodiscordant couples.
