Applying the Health Stigma and Discrimination Framework to Assess HIV Stigma among Health Care Professionals: A Mixed Methods, Community-Based Participatory Research Study.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
HIV stigma in health care disrupts the care continuum and negatively affects health outcomes among people living with HIV. Few studies explore HIV stigma from the perspective of health care providers, which was the aim of this mixed-methods, community-based participatory research study. Guided by the Health Stigma Discrimination Framework, we conducted an online survey and focus group interviews with 88 and 18 participants. Data were mixed during interpretation and reporting results. Stigma was low overall and participants reported more stigma among their colleagues. The main drivers of stigma included lack of knowledge and fear. Workplace policies and culture were key stigma facilitators. Stigma manifested highest through the endorsement of stereotypes and in the use of unnecessary precautions when treating people with HIV. This study adds to our understanding of HIV stigma within health care settings, with implications for the development of multi-level interventions to reduce HIV stigma among health care professionals.
