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.

Kobo Collector was used to gather the data, which was then exported to STATA 14 for analysis. In bivariate regression analysis, all variables with a Results: In this study, 183 (46.2%) (95%CI: 41.33-51.16) of respondents utilized HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis. Educational status: secondary and above (AOR: 2.18, 95%CI: 1.05-4.53). Age of sex workers 26-36 (AOR: 0.20, 95%CI: 0.17-0.84); experience of sex work 3-5 years (AOR: 0.25, 95%CI: 0.24-0.83); and having good knowledge (AOR: 4.98, 95%CI: 3.90-10.65) were significantly associated with the utilization of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis. Conclusion: In this study, HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis was not widely used by commercial female sex workers.
