Substance Use and Sexual Risk Behavior Among Black Men Who Have Sex With Men in New York City: Evidence for Increased Risk During Young Adulthood.
Article in AIDS education and prevention : official publication of the International Society for AIDS Education, 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
This study evaluated whether the association between substance use and sexual risk behavior varies as a function of age among 1,009 Black men who have sex with men (BMSM) in New York City. Hierarchical linear regression was used to examine the relationship between age (18-26 vs. 27+), substance use, and number of sexual partners and acts of condomless anal sex (CAS) in the past 90 days. Age moderated the relationship between substance use and sexual risk behavior, such that positive associations among binge drinking, marijuana, cocaine, and party drug use and number of male sexual partners and cocaine use and acts of CAS were significantly stronger among young adults than adults. BMSM may engage in more sexual risk behavior during young adulthood, and those who use substances may be at increased risk for HIV transmission-particularly through multiple sex partners. HIV prevention interventions targeting BMSM may benefit from being tailored to age and addressing sexual risk behavior and substance use concurrently.
