Effects of a Parent-Focused HIV Prevention Intervention for Young Men Who have Sex with Men: A Pilot Randomized Clinical Trial.
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. It is linked to trial NCT04018573 (Developing an HIV Prevention Intervention for Young MSM Through Improved Parent-child Communication), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
Young men who have sex with men (YMSM) face the highest risk of HIV infection among adolescents, yet effective sexual health interventions for this population are limited. Parents and Adolescents Talking about Healthy Sexuality (PATHS) is an online intervention for parents designed to improve communication about HIV and increase behaviors supportive of YMSM sexual health. We conducted an RCT of PATHS with sixty-one parent-son dyads recruited online (sons were cisgender, gay or bisexual, ages 14-22). Assessments were completed at baseline, immediate post-intervention, and over the next 3 months. Per parent and son report, in the 3 months following the intervention, parents assigned to PATHS engaged in more HIV discussion, condom instruction, and facilitation of HIV testing. Parents also reported significant pre- to immediate-post intervention changes in attitudes, skills, and behavioral intentions relevant to engaging with their sons about sexual health. Parents are an untapped but promising resource in preventing HIV among YMSM.This trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier: NCT04018573).
