Implementation of a safer conception programme for HIV-affected men and women in rural Uganda.
Article in Global public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
We integrated safer conception care into a Ugandan HIV clinic. People with HIV (PWH), or partnered with a PWH, and desiring children were eligible for the Healthy Families Clinic Program. Clients completed quarterly safer conception counselling visits and questionnaires to provide information around method preferences and outcomes (partner pregnancy, partner seroconversion). We used clinic level data to evaluate longitudinal viral suppression among PWH. Between November 2016 and January 2020, 361 clients (53% men) accessed services. 75% were PWH (51% women, 96% men): 99% were on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and most reported HIV-sero-different partnerships (97%). Frequently selected safer conception methods included ART (86%), timed condomless sex (74%), and PrEP (40%) with important differences by HIV-serostatus and gender. 22.5% reported pregnancy. Most (97%) PWH were virally suppressed at enrolment and 81% of non-virally suppressed PWH were virally suppressed at 15 months. Two HIV-negative clients (2%) had HIV seroconversion. There is demand for safer conception care in a public sector HIV-clinic in Uganda. Men and women have unique safer conception care preferences. The majority of clients engaged in safer conception care had viral suppression at follow up.
