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

backgroundCase Western Reserve University (CWRU)/University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center in Cleveland, OH, and the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) in Pittsburgh, PA, forged a strategic alliance to form the Rustbelt Center for AIDS Research. The Rustbelt Center for AIDS Research developed a National Institutes of Health-supported diversity, equity, and inclusion pathway initiative termed the "Rustbelt Investigators for the Next Generation (RING) Program" that provides research training experiences for Puerto Rican students that will help them pursue a biomedical research career in HIV.

settingThe RING Program provides 10-week research training experiences in different disciplines of HIV/AIDS for under-represented minority undergraduate and masters students from 4 campuses (Río Piedras, Mayagüez, Humacao, and Cayey) at the University of Puerto Rico. Mentors are drawn from both CWRU and Pitt.

resultsThe RING Program recently completed our first wave of recruitment. Recruitment sessions were either virtual or on site at the University of Puerto Rico campuses and included an overview presentation, a Q&A session, and in-person interviews. We interviewed 32 eligible applicants and accepted 10 into the program, of which 9 were female. Five students were matched with faculty at CWRU and 5 with faculty at Pitt.

conclusionsThe RING Program is a comprehensive program in laboratory and implementation science that aims to enhance under-represented Hispanic undergraduate and masters students' passion for pursuing a biomedical research career in HIV.
