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
purposeThis study examined the relationship between stigma by association-defined as prejudice and discrimination against individuals who are associated with stigmatized individuals, parenting stress, and the mental health of caregivers of adolescents living with HIV.
methodsMultivariate regression analyses were conducted using baseline data from the Suubi4Stigma study (2020-2022), a pilot study addressing HIV-related stigma among adolescents and their caregivers in southern Uganda.
resultsThe average age was 47 years, 77.5% were female, and 49% identified as the child's biological parent. Stigma by association was associated with poor caregiver mental health (b = 1.346, 95% confidence interval = 0.49, 2.21) and parenting stress (b = 1.431, 95% confidence interval = 0.79, 2.08). Caregiver's gender, biological relatedness, household composition, and family cohesion were uniquely associated with caregiver mental health and parenting stress. DISCUSSION: Findings point to the need to incorporate stigma reduction components, not only for adolescents living with HIV, but also their caregivers, to counteract the effects of stigma on their mental health.
