Addressing key issues in HIV self-test program implementation for Black and Latino sexual minority men in the Southern United States: a multiphase study protocol.
Article in Implementation science communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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.
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
backgroundBlack and Latino sexual minority men in the Southern United States have the highest HIV infection rates in the country. Increased HIV testing can help decrease onward HIV transmission through detecting previously undiagnosed infections. HIV self-testing is an evidence-based strategy to increase HIV testing among sexual minority men, but the implementation of this intervention in the Southern United States is limited. One implementation barrier is the lack of knowledge of Black and Latino sexual minority men's preferences for various HIV self-testing program characteristics and their willingness to pay for these preferences. In addition, little is known about facilitators and barriers to initiating HIV self-testing programs from the perspectives of HIV prevention implementation decision-makers in this region.
methodsWe will conduct an online discrete choice experiment among Black and Latino sexual minority men in the Southern United States (n = 300) to estimate this population's preferences for the following HIV self-testing program characteristics: delivery strategy (home delivery, peer delivery, clinic pickup); delivery speed (same day, next day, 3 days, and 5 days); support (instructions only, during test, and 1 week after delivery); and price ($0, $20, $40, $50, $60). We will also use this choice data to generate willingness-to-pay estimates for each program characteristic. Guided by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research, we will then conduct semi-structured interviews (n = 30) with HIV prevention program decision-makers at various health organizations serving Black and Latino sexual minority men in the region to further understand facilitators and barriers to implementation of the most preferred HIV self-testing program design. DISCUSSION: By gaining perspectives on HIV self-testing implementation from patients and providers, this project will build a roadmap for the initiation of HIV self-testing programs to decrease HIV incidence among one of the most disproportionately impacted populations in the USA.
