Sociodemographic characteristics and HIV risk behaviors of native-born and displaced Syrian men and transgender women who have sex with men in Lebanon.

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 rates among men and transgender women who have sex with men (MTWSM) in Lebanon are consistent with a concentrated epidemic. Geopolitical and social circumstances leave these communities vulnerable to HIV spread. To document this risk encountered by Lebanese native and displaced Syrian MTWSM, participants, recruited by respondent driven sampling beginning with Syrian seeds, completed a survey with questions covering sociodemographic, behavioral, medical, and stigma, followed by opt-out HIV testing. Analyses included descriptive statistics and linear regression to differentiate between native Lebanese and Syrians who migrated after the onset of the civil war to identify correlations among sociodemographic factors, stigma, and risk behavior as a function of country of birth. Experienced and internalized stigmas were higher in the Syrian born MTWSM and correlated with elements of HIV risk. Combatting the intersectional stigmas of Syrian MTWSM in Lebanon would be most beneficial in mitigating HIV risk for these individuals.
