Couple Efficacy and Communal Coping for HIV Prevention Among Kenyan Pregnant Couples.
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 5 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
Involving both partners of a couple in HIV prevention can improve maternal and child health outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa. Using data from 96 couples, we explored the actor and partner effects of perceived relationship dynamics on a couple's confidence and ability to reduce HIV risk together. Perceived relationship quality altered perceived confidence and ability to reduce HIV threat. One's own ability to confidently act together with their spouse appeared to be stronger for husbands than wives with respect to relationship commitment. A partner's confidence to communicate with their spouse about HIV risk reduction appeared to be stronger from husbands to wives for relationship satisfaction and trust. Gender differences in perceived relationship quality and effects on communal coping may exist and requires further study for applicability in intervention development in this setting. Efficacious couple-oriented interventions for HIV prevention should incorporate evidence on how partners mutually influence each other's health beliefs and behaviors.
