1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Due to the elevated incidence of HIV among Black American women, effective sexual health interventions are needed. To explore beauty salons as settings for such interventions, we examined Black American women stylists' experiences discussing sex-related topics with Black American women clients. Constructivist Grounded Theory methodology guided data collection and analysis. Individual intensive interviews were conducted in 2019 with 16 Black women cosmetologists and/or aestheticians who served Black women in Southern California. Analyses generated grounded theory which we refer to as Relating 'to her Human Side': Black American cosmetologist-client relationship building model. The model highlights the importance of three sets of practices: 1) playing different roles to appeal to clients' varying wants and needs, 2) creating a comfortable atmosphere, and 3) establishing a judgement-free zone. Stylists put clients at ease and consequently, clients shared stories regarding sex and relationships freely. Stylists' actions built trusting relationships with clients, thus crafting beauty salons as atmospheres favourable for sex-related conversations and potential sexual health interventions.
