The Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Stigma Scale: Measurement Properties of an Adaptation in German and French.
Article in International journal of 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
Objectives: This study aimed to adapt and validate the HIV PrEP Stigma Scale (HPSS) in French and German languages (HPSS-FR/DE) and assess its applicability across diverse linguistic and cultural contexts. Methods: The original scale was adapted to French and German and administered through an online survey in multiple European nations. A four-factor structure was extracted from the data, including negative social consequences, social pressure, self-support, and external support. The scale's construct validity, reliability, and cross-linguistic consistency were evaluated. Results: The adapted HPSS-FR/DE demonstrated robust psychometric properties, good construct validity, acceptable reliability, and consistent measurement across different languages. This adaptation enhances its utility in multicultural settings, offering a comprehensive tool to assess PrEP-related stigma. Conclusion: This study provides a suitable tool to address PrEP stigma in multicultural environments to enhance PrEP uptake and adherence among men who have sex with men. Moreover, it lays the groundwork for further investigations into PrEP stigma across diverse populations and cultural settings, enabling the development of targeted public health interventions and policies to combat this issue effectively.
