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

backgroundThough multiple sexual partnerships (MSPs) increase the risk of acquiring sexually transmitted diseases, such as HIV/AIDS, they are still common in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate spatial distribution and factors associated with MSPs among reproductive-age men in Ethiopia.

methodsThis study was based on Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey 2016 data. A total weighted sample of 12,688 men aged 15-59 years was included. Spatial analysis was conducted using Arc GIS 10.3 and SaTScan 9.6 statistical software. Mixed-effect logistic regression analysis was used to estimate the association between MSPs and independent variables. Variables with

resultsMSPs had significant variations across the country (global Moran's

conclusionMSPs showed significant variations across the country, with the primary-cluster spatial window located in Oromia and Somalia regions. Therefore, special attention should be paid to high-risk regions and groups, particularly those who are unmarried and substance users, to decrease MSPs and their serious consequences, such as HIV and other sexually transmitted infections.
