HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis at Two Urban Obstetrics/Gynecology Clinics in Buffalo: Awareness and Attitudes Among Non-Hispanic Black vs. Latinx Patients.

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
purposeNon-Hispanic Black and Latinx women are disproportionately affected by HIV when compared to the general population. This study evaluated awareness of and attitude towards PrEP, self-perceived HIV infection risk, and factors constituting high-risk behavior for HIV infection at two general OB/GYN clinics in Erie County, which exhibited a 31.6% increase in HIV cases from 2019 to 2020.
methodsOne thousand twenty-five self-administered surveys were analyzed.
resultsOf participants, 69.3% were non-Hispanic Black, 13.4% were Latinx, and 22.4% were White. There was no significant difference in awareness of or attitude toward PrEP between non-Hispanic Black and Latinx participants (p = 0.197, p = 0.467). Latinx participants exhibited the lowest awareness of PrEP compared with non-Hispanic Black and White participants (p = 0.002).
conclusionsIn our high-risk group, most participants had low self-perceived risk of HIV infection and low awareness of PrEP, and most were unwilling or unsure as to whether they would take PrEP. This calls attention to a need for improved counseling regarding PrEP and what constitutes risk of HIV infection at our general OB/GYN clinics, with a potential focus on Latinx individuals.
