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.

Abstract

To assess whether pressuring others to use HIV self-tests is prevalent among US men who have sex with men (MSM), we analyzed data from a randomized controlled trial of HIV self-testing. Among 752 online-recruited MSM who received HIV self-tests and responded to a 12-month survey, 8.5% (60/709) reported pressuring someone to use an HIV self-test: 29 pressured a friend, 28 pressured a sexual partner, and 1 pressured a family member. Conversely, 2.1% (15/715) reported being pressured to self-test: 12 by a sexual partner and 3 by a friend. No physical harm was reported. HIV prevention programs that use HIV self-tests to reach populations at risk for HIV may be reassured by our findings because, despite reports of pressure to use HIV self-tests, no physical abuse was reported between sex partners. These programs should, however, include messages emphasizing the voluntary use of HIV self-tests and be prepared to address concerns of persons who have been pressured to use HIV self-tests. This trial is registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT02067039) and the date of registration is February 5, 2014.
