HIV: California's 2018 criminalization reform and testing among those reporting risk behavior.
Article in Journal of public health policy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
HIV criminalization laws may discourage HIV testing. We tested whether California's 2018 HIV criminalization law reform increased the likelihood of past-year HIV testing compared to Nevada, which did not reform its HIV criminalization law. We fitted two difference-in-differences logistic regression models: one for all respondents reporting behaviors that increase the chances of getting or transmitting HIV, and one for male respondents reporting these behaviors. All analyses accounted for the complex survey design of BRFSS. HIV criminalization reform was significantly associated with an increased likelihood of past-year HIV testing. After reform, the predicted marginal probability of past-year HIV testing increased by six percentage points. By comparison, probabilities of a past-year HIV test decreased in Nevada. HIV criminalization law reform may increase the likelihood of getting tested by individuals who engage in behaviors that increase the chances of getting or transmitting HIV.
