Factors Influencing ART Adherence Among Persons Living with HIV Enrolled in Community Client-Led Art Delivery Groups in Lira District, Uganda: A Qualitative Study.
Article in HIV/AIDS (Auckland, N.Z.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Community client-led ART delivery groups (CCLADs) were introduced as one of the strategies to better serve individual needs and reduce unnecessary burdens on the health system. However, limited data adequately explained the factors influencing ART adherence among HIV/AIDS patients in CCLAD's model of care. The study aimed to assess the factors influencing ART adherence among HIV-positive patients attending CCLADs in Lira District, Uganda. Materials and Methods: We employed a qualitative method of data collection recruiting 25 study participants (expert clients) between July and August 2020. The study purposefully chose 25 participants to participate in with HIV/AIDS patients enrolled in community-based HIV care models. The interviews were recorded on audiotape, transcribed, and translated verbatim. We used a thematic approach to analyze the data. Results: Our study shows that social support among group members, patient self-motivation, counselling, and guidance were the major facilitators of adherence. From the analysis of results, our study found the following themes: Lack of food, stigma, forgetfulness, stress, unfair staff at the hospital, and socio-cultural beliefs were among the major barriers identified in this study. Conclusion: The study emphasizes that CCLADs improve ART adherence for HIV-positive clients by providing a supportive environment and medication access. Peer influence on alternative medicine usage hinders adherence. We recommend that continued support, funding, and education are necessary to address misconceptions and sustain CCLADs' effectiveness.
