CDC-Funded HIV Testing and Linkage to HIV Medical Care Among American Indian and Alaska Native People in the United States, 2014-2020.
Article in Public health reports (Washington, D.C. : 1974). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveAn estimated 1 in 5 American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) adults living with HIV are unaware of their status. We investigated HIV testing among AI/AN people receiving a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-funded test from 2014 through 2020.
methodsWe analyzed data on CDC-funded HIV tests reported by health departments and community-based organizations in the United States. We described the number of CDC-funded HIV tests, the percentage of people with newly and previously diagnosed HIV, and linkage to HIV medical care within 90 days of diagnosis.
resultsCDC-funded health departments and community-based organizations provided 99 227 HIV tests to AI/AN people during 2014-2020. Seven hundred thirty-five (0.7%) AI/AN people were diagnosed with HIV; 361 (0.4%) were newly diagnosed, 319 (0.3%) had a previous HIV diagnosis, and 55 (0.1%) had a previously unknown HIV status. Positivity for new diagnoses was highest among the following population groups tested in non-health care settings: men who had sex with men (MSM; n = 72, 1.2%), MSM who inject drugs (n = 12, 1.8%), and transgender people (n = 12, 1.5%). The percentage of linkage to HIV medical care was 80.6% for newly diagnosed people and 78.2% for previously diagnosed people.
conclusionsMSM AI/AN, including those who inject drugs, and transgender AI/AN may benefit from prioritized HIV testing. All AI/AN people with HIV, whether newly or previously diagnosed, should rapidly link to HIV medical care and receive support throughout the continuum of care. Our findings can inform which AI/AN population subgroups may benefit from enhanced HIV testing efforts and interventions.
