The Lived Experiences of Stigmatization in the Process of HIV Status Disclosure among People Living with HIV in Taiwan.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
People living with HIV (PLWH) face social stigma which makes disclosure of HIV status difficult. The purpose of this descriptive qualitative study was to understand the lived experiences of stigmatization in the process of disease disclosure among PLWH in Taiwan. Analysis of the semi-structured interviews from 19 PLWH in Taiwan revealed two phases and six themes. Phase one "experiences before disclosure" involved three themes: "Struggles under the pressure of concealing the HIV Status", "Torn between fear of unemployment/isolation and desire to protect closed ones", and "Being forced to disclose the HIV status." Phase two "experiences after disclosure" included three themes: "Receiving special considerations and requirements from school or work", "Receiving differential treatments in life and when seeking medical care", and "Stress relief and restart." Healthcare professionals need to assess stigmatization in PLWH and develop individualized approaches to assist with the disease disclosure process.
