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

backgroundAdolescents and young adults living with HIV (AYAH) aged 14-24 years in Africa experience substantially higher rates of virological failure and HIV-related mortality than adults. We propose to utilize developmentally appropriate interventions with high potential for effectiveness, tailored by AYAH pre-implementation, in a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial (SMART) aimed at improving viral suppression for AYAH in Kenya.

methodsUsing a SMART design, we will randomize 880 AYAH in Kisumu, Kenya to either youth-centered education and counseling (standard of care) or electronic peer navigation in which a peer provides support, information, and counseling via phone and automated monthly text messages. Those with a lapse in engagement (defined as either a missed clinic visit by ≥14 days or HIV viral load ≥1000 copies/ml) will be randomized a second time to one of three higher-intensity re-engagement interventions: This study will evaluate which interventions and which dynamic sequence of interventions improve sustained viral suppression and HIV care engagement in AYAH at 24 months post-enrollment and assess the cost-effectiveness of successful strategies. DISCUSSION: The study utilizes promising interventions tailored to AYAH while optimizing resources by intensifying services only for those AYAH who need more support. Findings from this innovative study will offer evidence for public health programming to end the HIV epidemic as a public health threat for AYAH in Africa.
