Willingness to use HIV self-test kits and willingness to pay among urban antenatal clients in Cote d'Ivoire and Tanzania: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Tropical medicine & international health : TM & IH, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
objectivesTo generate evidence on willingness to use HIV self-test kits and willingness to pay among antenatal care clients in public and private facilities in Cote d'Ivoire and Tanzania.
methodsCross-sectional survey data were collected from 414 clients recruited from 35 high-volume facilities in Cote d'Ivoire and from 385 clients in 33 high-volume facilities in Tanzania. Surveys covered willingness to use HIV self-test kits, prices clients were willing to pay, advantages and disadvantages and views on specific qualities of HIV self-tests. Market data on availability of proxy self-testing products (e.g. pregnancy and malaria tests) and attitudes of pharmacists towards HIV self-test kits were collected from 51 pharmacies in Cote d'Ivoire and 59 in Tanzania.
resultsWillingness to use HIV self-test kits was 65% in Cote d'Ivoire and 69% in Tanzania. Median ideal prices women would pay ranged from USD 1.77 in Cote d'Ivoire to USD 0.87 in Tanzania. Proxy self-test kits were available in pharmacies, and interest was high in stocking HIV self-test kits.
conclusionsImplications for national HIV self-test policy and planning include keeping prices low, providing psychological and HIV counselling, and ensuring linkage to HIV care and treatment services. Private pharmacies will play a key role in providing access to HIV self-test kits.
