Who Asks About HIV/STI Status?: An Analysis of Women Who Sell Sex and Inject Drugs.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 2023. 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
Communication about HIV and sexually transmitted infections (STI) is a cornerstone of risk reduction, yet there is a dearth of research that examines communication patterns among persons with dual risks for HIV/STI acquisition, such as women who sell sex and inject drugs (WSSID). We used logistic regression to identify factors associated with WSSID (N = 211) in Baltimore, Maryland always asking new clients about their HIV/STI status. Most WSSID were non-Hispanic White (73%) and 74% reported current homelessness. 50% of WSSID reported always asking new clients about their HIV/STI status. Experiencing depressive symptoms (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 0.53; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.29, 0.96) and having condomless sex with clients (aOR 0.31; 95% CI: 0.17, 0.57) were inversely associated with WSSID always asking new clients about their HIV/STI status. Recent entry into sex work (aOR 2.99; 95% CI: 1.30, 6.87) was positively associated with always asking new clients about their HIV/STI status. Enhancing HIV/STI communication in combination with engagement in other risk mitigation strategies may decrease disease incidence among WSSID.
