Cumulative Effects of Stigma Experiences on Retention in HIV Care Among Men and Women in the Rural Southeastern United States.
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 34 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
The stigmatization of HIV infection impedes every step along the HIV continuum of care, particularly care engagement and retention. The differential effects of various sources of stigma on retention in HIV care have been the subject of limited research. We examined the accumulation of HIV stigma experiences over 1 year in relationship to treatment retention among 251 men and women marginally engaged in HIV care in the southeastern United States. Results showed that cumulative stigma experiences predicted poorer retention in care, with greater stigma experiences related to less consistency in attending scheduled medical appointments. HIV stigma originating from family members and acts of overt discrimination were the most frequently experienced sources of stigma and were most closely associated with disengagement from HIV care. In addition, analyses by gender indicated that retention in care for men was impacted by stigma to a greater extent than among women. These findings reaffirm the importance of HIV stigma as a barrier to HIV care and provide new directions for interventions to mitigate the negative effects of stigma on patients who are not fully engaged in HIV care. Clinical trials registration NCT104180280.
