Aspects of working with female sex workers: Perspectives of NGOs implementing targeted intervention projects in HIV/AIDS.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2020. 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
contextHIV continues to be a major global public health issue. Links between sex work and HIV vulnerability have been recognized since the earliest days of the epidemic. Targeted Interventions (TIs) are aimed at offering prevention and care services to high risk populations within communities. Present research is an endeavor to grasp the different aspects indigenous to NGOs implementing TI projects.
aimTo understand the perspectives of NGOs implementing TIs projects for prevention of HIV/AIDS in Female Sex Workers. SETTINGS AND
designA cross sectional qualitative study. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Six NGOs registered with District AIDS Control Society, working for implementation of TIs projects for FSWs in a Metropolitan City were studied. Statistical Analysis: Data was analysed with SPSS version 20.
resultsRapid turnover of ORWs is major constraint faced by project managers in recruitment of ORWs. In PEs' recruitment, availability of candidates is major constraint. Stigma related to STI clinic and interference of key stakeholders are the major barriers preventing service utilization by FSWs. Client's dislike for using condom is one of the major barriers in condom utilization by FSWs.
conclusionThe realistic problems, constraints experienced by the programme managers became evident during the study. Integration of programs into the existing system and interventions should be tailor-made to local needs. Here lies the opportunity of 'Operational Research' for the institute like NACO to have the practical insights from TI projects.
