Identification of Self-Management Behavior Clusters Among People Living with HIV in China: A Latent Class Profile Analysis.
Article in Patient preference and adherence, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundSelf-management directly affects the health outcomes and quality of life among people living with HIV (PLWH). A better understanding of self-management level will provide evidence for researchers to develop effective interventions. PURPOSE: This study aims to identify the latent classes among PLWH in their levels of self-management behavior, and to explore the sociodemographic and disease-related predictors within these classes. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 868 PLWH were recruited from August 2017 to January 2019 in Sichuan Province, China. A latent class profile analysis was used to identify participants' self-management behavior, and multinomial logistic regression was used to explore the sociodemographic and disease-related predictors of the different latent classes.
resultsModel fit indices supported a three-class model. The mean self-management scores in the three classes were 23.56 (SD=6.02), 37.91 (SD=3.80), and 47.95 (SD=4.18), respectively. The latent classes were Class 1 (a poor level of self-management behavior, 12.1%, n=104), Class 2 (a moderate level of self-management behavior, 56.1%, n=491) and Class 3 (a good level of self-management behavior, 31.7%, n=273). Antiretroviral trerapy (ART) status, infection route, and educational level were the main predictors of self-management behavior.
conclusionThe findings indicated that the level of self-management behaviors among PLWH in China is inadequate. Those with a lower educational level, who were infected through blood/injecting drugs, and who were not receiving ART, showed a significantly lower level of self-management behavior. These results could help healthcare professionals to quickly recognize PLWH who are at a high risk of low-level self-management, using individual characteristics and could provide a scientific basis for the development of effective and targeted programs to improve self-management level in PLWH.
