HIV Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis for Conception Among HIV Serodiscordant Couples in the United States: A Cohort Study.
Article in AIDS patient care and STDs, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Practice guidelines on pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV serodiscordant couples recommend PrEP when the viral load of the partner living with HIV is either detectable or unknown. However, adherence to combination antiretroviral therapy is inconsistent, and research has found that individuals vulnerable to HIV place value on additional protective barriers. We conducted a prospective cohort study to assess the feasibility, perceptions, and adherence associated with periconceptional PrEP use among females without HIV and their male partners living with HIV across four academic medical centers in the United States. We performed descriptive statistics, McNemar's test of marginal homogeneity to assess discordance in female/male survey responses, and Spearman's correlation to determine associations between dried blood spot levels and female self-reported adherence to PrEP. We enrolled 25 women without HIV and 24 men living with HIV (one male partner did not consent to the study). Women took PrEP for a median of 10.9 months (interquartile range 3.8-12.0) and were generally adherent. In total, 87% of women (20/23) had a dried blood spot with >700 fmol/punch or ≥4 doses/week, 4% (1/23) at 350-699 fmol/punch or 2-3 doses/week, and 9% (2/23) at <350 fmol/punch or <2 doses/week (correlation between drug levels and adherence is based on prior data). Dried blood spot levels closely aligned with self-reported adherence (Spearman's rho = 0.64,
