Sexual Alcohol Expectancies, Alcohol Intoxication, and Sexual Behavior in MSM: An Experience Sampling Study.
Article in AIDS and behavior, 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
Despite advances in prevention and treatment, the transmission of human immunodeficiency virus remains a significant problem in the United States, especially among men who have sex with men (MSM). Alcohol use can promote risky sexual decisions, and alcohol expectancies may influence the role of alcohol in decision making. The present secondary analysis tests the moderating role of sexual alcohol expectancies (SAEs) in the relation between daily alcohol intoxication and sexual behavior in a sample of 248 moderate- to heavy-drinking MSM. SAEs were assessed with the Sexual Alcohol Expectancies Questionnaire at baseline, followed by two 23-day bursts of ecological momentary assessment including self-initiated morning assessments of sexual behavior and the prior night's perceived intoxication, as well as nine daily random alcohol assessments. Multilevel modeling showed that SAEs moderated a curvilinear association between intoxication and anal intercourse with a condom such that the relation between daily intoxication and anal intercourse with a condom is a more pronounced inverted u-shape among individuals with strong SAEs, and this moderation effect was not seen for condomless anal intercourse (CAI). While SAEs do appear to influence the association between intoxication and sexual behavior in MSM, they do not appear to moderate the association between alcohol intoxication and CAI.
