Awareness and Willingness to use HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Among Trans Women in China: A Community-Based Survey.
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 15 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
China's national guidelines call for increasing HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use to reverse the epidemic in populations at highest risk. However, few data exist on PrEP awareness and willingness among trans women in China. Our research aim was to fill this data gap through a cross-sectional survey among trans women in Nanjing and Suzhou cities of Jiangsu province. Respondent-driven sampling (RDS) was used to recruit participants to gauge their awareness of and willingness to use PrEP. Logistic regression analysis was used to characterize associations with awareness of PrEP and willingness to use PrEP. Of 222 HIV-negative/unknown serostatus trans women, 33.3% were aware of PrEP and 49.1% were willing to use PrEP. PrEP awareness was associated with a university degree or above (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 2.77, 95% CI 1.31-5.89) and not using alcohol with sex (AOR 2.02, 95% CI 1.00-4.09). Willingness to use PrEP was higher among trans women with one (AOR 3.56, 95% CI 1.68-7.54) or multiple sexual partners (AOR 2.53, 95% CI 1.24-5.15) compared to those with no partners. This study witnessed low awareness of PrEP, yet substantial willingness to use PrEP. Implementation research to identify ways to promote, scale up access, and assess effectiveness of PrEP for trans women is urgently needed in China.
