1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThis paper examines lack of interest in pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and lack of willingness to use PrEP information sources among men who have sex with men (MSM).

methodsDemographic subgroups were compared via odds ratios in this purposive sample of 273 MSM.

results29% were uninterested in learning more about PrEP. Lack of interest was most common among: already PrEP-aware, Caucasian, HIV-positive, aged 40+, well-educated men. Most sources of information about PrEP were deemed unacceptable.

conclusionsFueling the lack of PrEP use among MSM are a lack of interest in PrEP and an unwillingness to utilize existing information resources.
