Integration of Partner Notification Services at a Sexually Transmitted Infections Clinic.
Article in Rhode Island medical journal (2013), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesPNS is critical to prevent the spread of STIs. We evaluated the feasibility of integrating PNS into an STI clinic focused on MSM. DESIGN/
methodsThe RI STI Clinic, in partnership with the RIDOH, implemented a PNS program in 2019. Interviews with patients diagnosed with gonorrhea/ syphilis were conducted. RIDOH attempted outreach to partners identified. We utilized interview data among MSM diagnosed with gonorrhea/syphilis in clinic from 1/1/19-12/31/2021. Bivariate analyses/multivariable logistic regression were conducted.
results341 MSM were diagnosed with gonorrhea/syphilis during the three-year period, and 233 (68%) interviews were completed. Partner information was provided in 173 (74%) interviews. At least one workable partner was provided in 110 (47%) interviews. No statistically significant associations between provision of workable partners and index patient age/race/ethnicity were found.
conclusionsPNS at an STI clinic was successful, but challenges led to suboptimal information. Research is needed to identify barriers to integrate/optimize PNS in STI clinics.
