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

Background: Antiretroviral chemoprophylaxis is a promising strategy for preventing the spread of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The knowledge of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is required for intervention uptake and adherence to prevent the spread of HIV. This study aimed to decompose education-based inequalities in PrEP knowledge for HIV prevention among reproductive-aged women in Cote d'Ivoire. Methods: A cross-sectional study design with a nationally representative sample of 12,934 women aged 15-49 years was analyzed from the 2021 Cote d'Ivoire Demographic and Health Survey. The survey was conducted between September to December, 2021. The outcome variable was the knowledge of PrEP for HIV prevention. Statistical analysis was conducted using percentage, concentration index, and Lorenz curve. The level of significance was set at p<0.05. Results: A weighted prevalence of 14.5% (95% CI: 12.5-16.3%) was estimated for PrEP knowledge for HIV prevention. Overall, educated women had a higher knowledge of PrEP for HIV prevention (Conc. Index= 0.225; SE= 0.012; p<0.001). Across the levels of women's characteristics, the results showed higher PrEP knowledge for HIV prevention among educated women. Education (Contri: 40.7327%, E Conclusion: There is limited knowledge of PrEP for HIV prevention among women in Cote d'Ivoire. Educated women had greater knowledge of PrEP for HIV prevention. The results of this study could guide interventions targeted to enhance the knowledge of PrEP as an HIV prevention option.
