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
backgroundAlthough progress has been made in the prevention and treatment of HIV in China, there are still a considerable number of new infections annually, especially in older men. HIV health education for older men is urgently needed. Evidence-based, acceptable, and scalable interventions are urgently needed to increase their capacity to prevent HIV. We describe a trial protocol to evaluate the effectiveness of a brief video-based intervention targeting older men's knowledge of HIV prevention.
designThis study is a randomized controlled trial. The trial will be held in the residents' activity centers of three communities.
methodsA total of 450 older men will be randomly divided into three groups (Sunset Without AIDS intervention group and two control groups) for 2 weeks. We will assess the feasibility and acceptability of intervention through interviews. The primary outcome includes changes in participants' knowledge related to AIDS after 2 weeks intervention and 1, 3, and 6 months of follow-up. The secondary outcomes, e.g., changes in participants' stigma attitude, risk behaviors attitude, and risk behaviors related to AIDS, will be respectively assessed 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after the second intervention. DISCUSSION: Sunset Without AIDS may be an innovative way to help older men improve HIV prevention knowledge, fill the gap in video-based HIV prevention education for the older men in China, and gain experience of HIV education. This project will innovate the HIV education ideas of older men and enrich the theoretical research content of AIDS-related education of older men. The findings may also provide the basis for the research and formulation of more reasonable AIDS education strategies, prevention, and control policies for the elderly.
