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
introductionchildren with perinatal human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection now survive to adolescence and adulthood and so are confronted with issues related to sexuality and sexual reproductive health. This study is aimed at determining the sexual knowledge and behaviours of these adolescents, determining their procreation intention and the impact of their age, gender and understanding of the mother to child transmission risk on their procreation intention.
methodsa hospital-based cross-sectional study of adolescents and young adults aged 15-24 years infected with HIV in the perinatal period, accessing tertiary care in Enugu. A pretested questionnaire was used to obtain information about socio-demographic variables, sexual knowledge and behaviour, procreation intention and knowledge of prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV. Data analysis was descriptive and a test association using fisher´s chi square was done on the variables.
resultsseventy-one adolescents were studied. The majority (95.8%) were less than 20 years of age. Mean age was 17.01 ± 1.80 years with M: F ratio of 1:1.7. Nineteen (26.8%) were sexually active with 15 (78.9%) having single partners. About 80% had their first sexual activities before the age of 18 years. Fifty-six (78.9%) received some form of sex education. Only gender and socio-economic status was significantly related to marriage and procreation intentions of respondents.
conclusionthere´s need for sustained/intensive education programs and policy on sexual practices with focus on perinatally infected adolescents who may not be well informed on risk and consequences of their sexual preferences.
