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

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine if human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) practitioners offer gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) to their transgender patients living with HIV, as previous studies have shown that these patients are more likely to be virally suppressed and retained in care. Methods: We conducted an online survey sent to 2570 HIV practitioners who attended an International Antiviral Society-USA event between 2017 and 2019. We also assessed demographics, transgender care training, comfort, prescribing practices, and knowledge. Results: Respondents ( Conclusion: This survey is the first to assess GAHT practices among HIV practitioners from across the United States. The majority of those surveyed prescribe GAHT to their transgender patients living with HIV. Although most felt comfortable doing so, few had formal training and knowledge scores were low. We advocate for the integration of GAHT education into formal training programs and offer resources for those who wish to pursue education.
