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

Background: The approval of long-acting injectable cabotegravir/rilpivirine (LAI CAB/RPV) heightened the urgency of ensuring effective implementation. Our study assesses readiness and barriers to implement LAI CAB/RPV across Ryan White-funded clinics in the United States. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey between December 2020 and January 2021 using validated 4-item measures: acceptability of intervention measure (AIM), intervention appropriateness measure (IAM), and feasibility of intervention measure (FIM). Associations between measures and clinic characteristics were evaluated via Spearman rank correlations. A 5-point Likert scale ranked potential barriers of implementation responses. Open-ended questions were analyzed through a thematic approach. Results: Of 270 clinics, 44 (16%) completed the survey: 38% federally qualified health centers, 36% academic, 20% community-based organizations, 14% hospital outpatient, and 9% nonprofit. Means (SD; range) were as follows: AIM, 17.6 (2.4; 12-20); IAM, 17.6 (2.4; 13-20); and FIM, 16.8 (2.9; 7-20). Twenty percent were not at all ready to implement LAI CAB/RPV, and 52% were slightly or somewhat ready. There was a significant association between AIM and the proportion of Medicaid patients (AIM, rho = 0.312, Conclusions: There is variability of readiness yet high levels of perceived acceptability and appropriateness of implementing LAI CAB/RPV among Ryan White clinics, necessitating tailored interventions for successful implementation. A special focus on addressing the barriers of adherence and the cost of implementation is needed.
