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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeThe objective of this study was to determine whether state-level policies that restrict minors' access to confidential HIV testing without parental consent may suppress HIV testing in young men who have sex with men (YMSM) in the United States.

methodsSecondary data from a national HIV prevention trial among YMSM aged 13-17 years (N= 612) were analyzed to evaluate the association between living in a state with restrictive HIV testing policies for minors and HIV testing behavior, awareness of home-based HIV testing, and confidential interactions with a physician. Multilevel logistic regression models were adjusted for age, parents' education level, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, being sexually experienced, and health literacy of medical forms and controlled for clustering by state. Age-stratified models by state-level age of consent for HIV testing and a subanalysis (including only sexually experienced participants) were also conducted.

resultsResiding in a state with restrictive HIV testing policies was associated with the lack of awareness of home-based HIV testing (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 3.06; 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 1.49, 6.28). No significant associations were found for HIV testing behavior (aOR: 1.81; 95% CI: 0.85, 3.84), speaking privately with a physician (aOR: 1.00; 95% CI: 0.56, 1.79), or discussing confidentiality with a physician (aOR: 0.95; 95% CI: 0.52, 1.71) and HIV testing policies for minors. These results were consistent in both the age-stratified models and subanalysis. DISCUSSION: HIV testing proportions among YMSM did not differ by state-level minor consent laws. However, YMSM living in states with restrictive policies on HIV testing for minors were less likely to be aware of home-based HIV testing.
