A Multidimensional Model of Sexual Empowerment Among Young Black Men Who have Sex with Men: A Latent Profile Analysis.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 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
Sexual empowerment is a key strategy in HIV prevention intervention design, yet its measurement has been conceptualized as homogeneous. To date, no studies have examined whether young Black men who have sex with men (YBMSM) exhibit heterogeneity across sexual empowerment. Using baseline data from a randomized controlled trial (N = 275, HIV-negative YBMSM), we classified YBMSM into sexual empowerment profiles based on five indicators using a latent profile analysis and assessed the associations between the sexual empowerment profiles and stigma-related experiences using multinomial logistic regression. Three profiles were identified: psychologically empowered with safer sex intentions (profile 1); psychologically disempowered with safer sex intentions (profile 2); and psychologically disempowered without safer sex intentions (profile 3). YBMSM reporting fewer stigma-related experiences were more likely to be profile 1 than profile 2 and profile 3. To empower YBMSM, interventions based on sexual empowerment profile targeting the psychological/behavioral aspects of empowerment and addressing stigma are needed.
