The Impact of an Economic Strengthening Intervention on Academic Achievement Among Adolescents Living with HIV: Findings from the Suubi + Adherence Cluster-Randomized Trial in Uganda (2012-2018).
Trial report in AIDS and behavior, 2023. 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
We examined the impact of a family-based economic strengthening intervention on school dropout and repeating a class among ALWHIV in Uganda. In this cluster-randomized trial (2012-2018) conducted in 39 clinics, we recruited adolescents aged 10-16 years living with HIV. We included data from 613 adolescents. We plotted a Kaplan Meier survival curve and fitted Cox proportional hazards models to test the effect of the economic strengthening intervention on school dropout. The incidence of school dropout was 13.0% and 9.6% in the control and intervention groups, respectively. Also, economic empowerment reduced the risk of school dropout, aHR = 0.68 (95% CI 0.52-0.88), p-value 0.004. In other words, participants in the intervention group had 32% reduced hazards of dropping out of school. Also, increasing age aHR = 1.54 (95% CI 1.42-1.66), p-value < 0.001 and double orphanhood aHR = 0.67 (95% CI 0.47-0.96) p-value 0.030 increased the risks for dropping out of school. The intervention was not efficacious in reducing the rates of repeating a class. The intervention offered the ALWHIV an opportunity to live a productive adult life. More research is required on these kinds of interventions intended to keep ALWHIV and those impacted by HIV in school.
