Community-Based HIV Testing for Urban Youth in Western Kenya.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Youth aged 15-24 years comprise 48% of new HIV infections and 15% of persons living with HIV in Kisumu County, Kenya. We assessed factors associated with HIV infection among youth participating in the Community Health Initiative (CHI) implemented in an urban informal settlement in 2018. Predictors of HIV infection were assessed by multivariable logistic regression. CHI engaged 4,441 youth through community health campaigns and home-based HIV testing. HIV prevalence was 3.5% overall and 7.1% among young women aged 20-24. There were 24 youth newly identified as HIV-positive out of 157 total HIV-positive youth. HIV-positive status was positively associated with being female (aOR = 2.46; 95% CI 1.57, 3.84) and aged 20-24 (aOR = 2.40; 95% CI 1.52, 3.79), and inversely associated with secondary school education or higher (aOR = 0.27; 95% CI 0.16, 0.44). Our findings highlight the need for HIV prevention programs specially tailored for youth to further reduce new HIV infections in this priority population.
